Abstract
Broadly the disclosure relates to a warhead positioner system which includes a warhead construction comprising a cylindrical missile section having a sector-shaped ordnance charge forming one quadrant thereof, means supporting said missile section for rotational movement about the longitudinal axis of the missile, torque motor means for controlling the rotational position, and means conducting electrical signals to said torque motor from an electric seeker head whereby the charge is positioned so as to be directed toward a desired target upon being detonated. Further, the electrical signal conducting means comprise digital-type circuitry responsive to the electric seeker head output for positioning the charge in one of four quadrants and further analog circuitry for positioning the charge in either half of the selected quadrant.
