A projectile having a longitudinal axis, a sensor disposed in the substantially pointed front end of the projectile for detecting a respective target, and electronics connected to the output of the sensor for igniting a correction charge to effect a correction of the flight path of the projectile by a predetermined angle (.delta..sub.0). In order to install the apparatus for flight-path correction into the respective projectile completely and in a space-saving manner, so that, unlike in known projectiles, corresponding evaluation and signal-transmission units in the respective weapon carrier can be omitted and complicated gyroscopic systems in the projectile can be omitted, the sensor determines the angle (.delta.) between the longitudinal axis of the projectile and the line (target line) connecting the projectile and the target, and when an angle (.delta..sub.0) is reached that is identical in size/magnitude to the deviation caused by the respective correction charge, the electronics ignite this charge.

[ What is claimed:] [1.] A projectile having a longitudinal axis and a substantially pointed front end, at least one flight correction charge disposed on the projectile for effecting a correction of the flight path of the projectile by a predetermined angle (.delta..sub.0) when ignited, a sensor disposed in said front end of said projectile for detecting a respective target and for measuring an angle (.delta.) between the longitudinal axis of the projectile and a line connecting the projectile and the target, and electronics, responsive to an output from said sensor, for causing ignition of said flight correction charge when said angle (.delta.) measured by said sensor is identical in magnitude to a flight path correction of said predetermined angle (.delta..sub.0) caused by the respective flight correction charge.
