  • Detachable aerodynamic missile stabilizing system
    Patent number: 7800032
    Abstract: Provided is a detachable aerodynamic missile stabilizing system for a missile flying at low flight speeds. The system includes a housing adapted to couple to couple to the missile. Extending outward from the housing is at least one grid fin. Specifically the grid fin extends from the housing such that it is transverse to a longitudinal axis of the housing and the missile. The grid fin provides a plurality of apertures. The apertures are parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing and the missile. A coupler is adapted to detachably couple the housing to the missile. A method of use is also provided.
