The present invention relates to a process and a device for guiding a flying craft onto a target, the device (1) comprising a detector (D) pointed at the target in such a way that a projection of the latter is situated on a field of measurement of the detector (D), a computation unit (UC) for determining guidance commands, and members (6) carrying out the guidance. According to the invention, the said device (1) furthermore comprises computation means (C3, C4) for determining commands for varying attitudes of the said flying craft making it possible to center the said projection with respect to a first direction of the measurement field, and the line of sight of the detector (D) is moveable and is controlled in such a way as to center the said projection with respect to a second direction of the measurement field, which is different from the said first direction.

1. A process for guiding a flying craft onto a target, said guiding exhibiting various successive phases, including a terminal phase for which at least the guidance is carried out with the aid of (a) measurements performed by a detector mounted on the flying craft and pointed with its line of sight toward the target so that a projection of the latter is situated on a field of measurement of said detector, and (b) information emanating from information sources mounted on the flying craft, wherein at least in said terminal phase, attitudes of the flying craft are controlled to center said projection of the target with respect to a first direction of said measurement field, in that the line of sight of said detector is moveable about a second direction of said field of measurement, which is different from said first direction, and in that, at least in said terminal phase, the mobility of the line of sight of said detector is controlled to center said projection of the target with respect to said second direction.
