Abstract
The trajectory of a projectile is variable by means of a thrust generated by gas issuing from a nozzle, the nozzle normally rotating at high speed about the axis of the projectile but assuming a desired angular orientation for a predetermined period of time in order to impart a lateral thrust to the projectile thereby changing its trajectory.
