Abstract
A jet vane thrust vector control unit is provided to pitch a missile over to a generally horizontal path after the missile has been vertically launched. A collar affixed to the base of the missile by explosive bolts is utilized to mount the unit so that the unit can be jettisoned after it has done its job.
