Abstract

See full text

A system and method for ejecting a store from an aircraft include a stowage tube configured to retain the store. The stowage tube includes an open rear end. A door panel is coupled to the stowage tube. An actuator driven linkage is coupled to the door panel. The actuator driven linkage is configured to rotate the door panel about a pivot axis at a forward edge opposite from an aft end between a closed position associated with a stowed position of the system and an open position associated with a deployed position of the system. The stowage tube is configured to rearwardly eject the store out of the open rear end when the system is in the deployed position.
