Provided is a detachable aerodynamic missile stabilizing system for a missile flying at low flight speeds. The system includes a housing adapted to couple to couple to the missile. Extending outward from the housing is at least one grid fin. Specifically the grid fin extends from the housing such that it is transverse to a longitudinal axis of the housing and the missile. The grid fin provides a plurality of apertures. The apertures are parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing and the missile. A coupler is adapted to detachably couple the housing to the missile. A method of use is also provided.

Detachable aerodynamic missile stabilizing system

An apparatus and method for controlling trajectory of an object ( ) to a first predetermined position. The apparatus has an input layer ( ) having nodes ( ) for receiving input data indicative of the first predetermined position. First weighted connections ( ) are connected to the nodes of the input layer ( ). Each of the first weighted connections ( ) have a coefficient for weighting the input data. An output layer ( ) having nodes ( ) connected to the first weighted connections ( ) determines trajectory data based upon the first weighted input data. The trajectory of the object is controlled based upon the determined trajectory data.
