Abstract

See full text

In order to allow decoy projectiles (6) to be launched with optimal quality of flight, the projectiles respectively include external cylindrical bodies (80) which are dimensionally identical, housed in the tube and each having a deployable-fins (9) aerodynamic stabilization device, that adopt a folded position inside the body when the projectile is in the tube, and a deployed position outside of the tube. To achieve that, the system includes a projectile ejection system (8), with an axial passage (12), arranged fixedly as a continuation of the tube, at the opposite end to the advance mechanism, and containing, in succession, after the control mechanism, the projectile (6) that is to be ejected by a controllable ejection device (25) connected to the module.
