Abstract
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.
