See full text

A rotating launcher system includes a plurality of rocket or missile housing tubes arranged in a circular pattern within a carousel, a set of frames, a cylindrical protective skin, an aerodynamically optimized nose cone with a bore, and an optional door covering the bore, enabling rockets or missiles to exit the launcher. The rotating launcher system may also include an aerodynamically optimized tail cone with a bore, and an optional door covering the bore, enabling exhaust from the rockets or missiles to exit the launcher. The rotating launcher system also includes an integral controller for an indexing motor, and an indexing motor enabling the bores of the nose and tail cones to align with different rockets or missiles in the carousel by either rotating the nose and tail cones, or by rotating the carousel.
