A terminal guidance system is described including a heading command subsystem and a glide-slope command subsystem which develop command signals for use in guiding an aircraft or other vehicle into a preselected heading and/or altitude at a terminal point. The heading command subsystem is responsive to certain input data and continuously develops command signals for use in directing the aircraft from a remote location to a terminal point so that upon arrival it has a preselected terminal heading. The glide-slope command subsystem is responsive to certain other input data and continuously develops command signals for use in controlling the rate of descent of the aircraft so that it will have a preselected altitude and glide-slope upon arrival at the terminal.
