Abstract: A missile comprising a first rotatable portion arranged for rotation relative to a second rotatable portion of the missile, the first rotatable portion being adapted to be subjected to a thrust causing it to rotate in one sense during the flight of the body and in the absense of any restraining or opposing forces, and said second rotatable portion being adapted to be subjected to a thrust causing it to rotate in the opposite sense during the flight of the body, steering means on said first rotatable portion for exerting a thrust thereon away from the axis of rotation thereof to produce a steering effect on the missile or body, a free gyroscope mounted in the first rotatable portion and arranged to generate an electrical signal representative of the roll deviation of the first rotatable portion from a predetermined roll attitude in space and electromagnetic braking means responsive to said electrical signal to brake the first rotatable portion against the second rotatable portion to bring said first rotatable

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a missile having a rotatable portion arranged for rotation relative to another portion of the missile which contains spacedly mounted electromagnetic coils for respectively operating first and second control member actuator mechanisms for controlling the missile.
