Abstract
A system of guidance in yaw, pitch and roll, which enables a small number of nozzles (three) to be used. Each of the nozzles supplies a continuous gas jet, which can be oriented about an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the vehicle which carries them, the deflection of each of the nozzles preferably being limited to .+-.60.degree..
