The intensification of urban combat encourages the industrials of terrestrial armament to develop new weapon systems equipped with trajectory modification devices. Deploying these devices during the projectile flight would allow reducing the scattering error in order to narrow the collateral damage. The challenge lies in the development of a device adapted to the flight conditions of a spin-stabilized projectile. An isolated spoiler, installed on a rotatable ring, is chosen as the most adapted control device. This work consists in developing an optimization algorithm for the geometrical parameters of the spoiler and to demonstrate that it is possible to modify concurrently the range and lateral deviation of the projectile. On one hand a neu...
