In automatic command to line of sight guidance systems, the missile and target are tracked remotely and a guidance computer processes the tracking data to provide a guidance command for the missile. In such systems, the target and missile must be visible but when the angular subtense of the missile flare is greater than that of the target, the target is totally obscured by the flare when the missile is on sightline leading to the erroneous guidance commands. Described herein is a system in which the obscuration of the target by the missile flare is reduced by guiding the missile along a trajectory displaced from the sightline until the target subtense is the same size as that of the missile.
