canards are mounted in pairs on two orthogonal shafts. Each pair of canards is deflected<br />

by a pneumatic servo that is supplied with nitrogen or air from a pressure vessel.<br />

Guidance Scheme<br />

Table 3.3.1 NSROC Boost Guidance Systems<br />

S-19/D/G Family<br />

Rail Attitude Hold<br />

Guides to a specific attitude<br />

specified by the launch rail QE and<br />

AZ<br />

DS-19/GS-19 Family<br />

Integrated Impact Point<br />

Guides to a preprogrammed IIP<br />

and continually updates throughout<br />

the burn phase<br />

Dispersion Specifics<br />

Onboard Sensor(s)<br />

Canards decouple at t + 18 seconds.<br />

Impact dispersion (3s theoretical)<br />

Down Range = 7.5% of apogee<br />

Cross Range = 7.5% of apogee<br />

S-19: MIDAS roll stabilized gyro<br />

platform (position gyros)<br />

S-19D: DMARS Inertial<br />

Measurement Unit (rate gyros,<br />

accels)<br />

S-19G: GLN-MAC-200<br />

incorporating roll gimbal mounted<br />

LN-200 Fiber Optic Gyro<br />

Canards decouple at t + 45 seconds<br />

Impact dispersion (3S theoretical)<br />

Down Range = 2% of apogee<br />

Cross Range = 1.2% of apogee<br />

not yet available for IIP<br />

computation).<br />

A guidance system operates during the first 18 seconds of flight. Figures 3.3.1-1a and 3.3.1-1b<br />

are photos of the S-l9 Boost Guidance System. Figure 3.3.1-2 is a photo of the DS-19 Boost<br />

Guidance System.<br />
