A rocket propelled missile assembly comprises an outer casing defining an internal solid rocket propellant chamber, the casing having an opening at its forward end aligned with an internal tube submerged in the rocket propellant chamber, and at least one exhaust nozzle at its rear end for venting exhaust gases from the propellant chamber. Solid propellant is contained within the propellant chamber surrounding the internal tube, and a separate terminal stage missile is partially or fully submerged in the tube with the capacity to separate from the tube forwardly through the front end of the casing. The missile separates from the remainder of the system on booster burn out.
