A combined steering and drag reduction device for a missile is disclosed. The device includes a base and an upper part which are arranged in succession along a main axis of navigation of the missile. Advantageously, the device also includes a pressurized-gas generator and at least one lateral thruster having at least one nozzle configured to deliver a thrust, by expanding gas transmitted by the generator and oriented along an axis substantially perpendicular to the main axis. The at least one lateral thruster also has at least one stabilizing chamber configured to expand the gas transmitted by the generator and expel it through an outlet section of the base substantially perpendicular to the main axis.

Combined steering and drag-reduction device

A propulsion system including: a booster; a turbojet engine; the booster including a chamber which is fixed to a rear casing of the turbojet engine by being arranged along the longitudinal axis thereof, which chamber includes at a rear a jet pipe and includes at least one charge and a mechanism initiating the charge; and gas bleed tubes connected to the booster and which are configured either for igniting the combustion chamber of the turbojet engine on for starting the turbine of the turbojet.
