The disclosure pertains to a projectile guided by successive lateral gas jets by way of pairs of impellers. The impellers of one pair are fired so as to exert opposite moments of rotation. According to the disclosure, the impellers are brought together in two groups. Of the impellers of one pair, one is in one group and the other is in the other group. The impellers of each of the groups are separated by diode bulkheads that withstand the pressure of the impeller that is located on one side of the bulkhead and is fired first, but does not withstand the firing of the impeller that is located on the other side of the bulkhead and is fired second. The impellers of one group lead into one and the same nozzle. Thus, the making of the guidance impellers is simplified at the same time as the control of the guidance is improved.

A projectile comprising: a longitudinal axis, a center of gravity, a first group of guidance impellers having first impellers, and a second group of guidance impellers having second impellers; wherein: a first one of said first impellers leads into a first nozzle located in front of the center of gravity of the projectile, and a first one of said second impellers leads into a second nozzle located behind the center of gravity of the projectile; each of said first impellers of said first group of guidance impellers and said second impellers of said second group of guidance impellers comprises a combustion chamber, such that each of the combustion chambers for adjacent ones of said first impellers and adjacent ones of said second impellers are separated from one another by a diode bulkhead; each of said diode bulkheads has a first face and a second face, such that each of said diode bulkheads is adapted to withstand a pressure exerted on its first face that is substantially greater than a pressure exerted at the same time on its second face, and to yield when a pressure exerted on its second face is substantially greater than a pressure exerted at the same time on its first face, so as to provide for a direct communication between combustion chambers of adjacent ones of said first impellers and between combustion chambers of adjacent ones of said second impellers.
