Process for guiding an elongated missile, equipped with booster motor, sustainer, power source, control electronics, payload, and search head, from above, upon a target, such as a helicopter, where the missile, after ballistic flight, is braked before the target area by a drogue chute and is diverted into a position that is essentially perpendicular to the earth's surface over the target area so that the search head of the missile, which is suspended from the drogue chute, will be pointed downward, whereupon, after the search head has locked on the target, the drogue chute is separated and the missile is guided to the target by the sustainer, characterized in that, immediately prior to, before, or after the moment of drogue chute deployment, a lateral motor, located in the center of gravity of the missile, is turned on so that, first of all, in order to accelerate the tilt-off of the missile into the vertical, there is generated a force that is added vectorially to the force of gravity and that thereupon one can counteract the missile's rolling, pitching, and yawing motions, that take place during the search phase that follows the tilt-off, so that the missile is stabilized, as well as missile for performance of said process.

[ I claim:] [1.] Process for guiding an elongated missile, equipped with booster motor, sustainer, power source, control electronics, payload, and search head, from above upon a moving target, wherein the booster motor is released and the such defined remaining missile after ballistic flight is braked before the target area by a drogue chute and is deverted into a position that is essentially perpendicular to the earth's surface over the target area so that the search head of the missile, suspended from the drogue chute, will be pointed downward, whereafter after the search head has locked on the target, the drogue chute is separated and the missile is guided to the target by the sustainer, characterized in that immediately about the moment of drogue chute deployment, with the remaining missile still being suspended from the drogue chute, a lateral motor producing both radial and tangential forces, arranged in the center of gravity of the remaining missile, is turned on so that first in order to accelerate the tilt-off of the missile into the vertical, a downwardly directed radial force is generated that is added vectorially to the force of gravity and creates a momentum having the tendency of turning the remaining missile around the center of the drogue chute into the vertical, whereafter a combination of tangential and/or radial forces is created to counteract the remaining missile's rolling, pitching, and yawing motions taking place during the search phase that follows the tilt-off and before the drogue chute separation so that the missile is thus stabilized. [5.] Missile being guided from above upon a moving target, comprising a booster motor at its after end, a search head at its front end, a folded drogue chute located in a section of the missile between the booster motor and the search head, a sustainer located in a section of the missile between the folded drogue chute and the search head, where the booster motor is released and the remaining missile after ballistic flight is braked before the target by the drogue chute and is diverted into a position that is essentially perpendicular to the earth's surface over the target so that the search head of the missile, suspended from the drogue chute, will be pointed downward, and wherein after the search head is locked on the target, the drogue chute is separated and the missile is guided to the target by the sustainer, a lateral motor at about the moment of drogue chute deployment, with a remaining missile still being suspended from the drogue chute, creates both tangential and radial forces at the remaining missile's center of gravity, with radial and tangential motor nozzles accelerate tilt-off of the missile into a vertical and a downwardly directed radial force is generated and added vectorially to the force of gravity in creating a momentum having the tendency of turning the remaining missile around the center of the drogue chute into the vertical, and creates a combination of tangential and radial forces to counteract the remaining missile's rolling, pitching, and yawing motions taking place during the search phase that follows tilt-off and before the drogue chute separation such that the missile is thereby stabilized, a payload located behind the search head, and control electronics with microprocessor and location sensors guide the missile to the moving target.
