摘要： An aerodynamically shaped, active towed body includes a fuselage curved along its vertical and horizontal longitudinal plane. The fuselage has a unit chamber and a load chamber. A transverse plane of the fuselage is triangular, two upper corners being located on an upper face of the fuselage and a lower corner being located on a lower face of the fuselage. Each of two wings is subdivided into a small and a large segment. The small segment points downwards and is attached to the fuselage in a region of the lower corner and the large segment points upwards and is attached to the small segment. Each of the small segments comprise an additional load chamber. The towed body further includes a tail fin, rudders that are each adjustable by the control device and a coupling for the towing cable.

摘要： A launch system and method improve the launch efficiency of a booster rocket and payload. A launch aircraft atop which the booster rocket is mounted in a cradle, is flown or towed to an elevation at which the booster rocket is released. The cradle provides for reduced structural requirements for the booster rocket by including a compressible layer, that may be provided by a plurality of gas or liquid-filled flexible chambers. The compressible layer contacts the booster rocket along most of the length of the booster rocket to distribute applied pressure, nearly eliminating bending loads. Distributing the pressure eliminates point loading conditions and bending moments that would otherwise be generated in the booster rocket structure during carrying. The chambers may be balloons distributed in rows and columns within the cradle or cylindrical chambers extending along a length of the cradle. The cradle may include a manifold communicating gas between chambers.

摘要： A fast deployment and retrieval system permits the rapid deployment of a decoy in seconds in response to an incoming threat, thus eliminating the necessity of pre-deployment, with retrieval permitting reeling in and deployment of the decoy a number of times during a mission in response to threats, and a commensurate reduction in life cycle cost. Upon detection of an incoming threat by a warning receiver, a controller coupled to a transmission releases a brake that is utilized to control the speed of deployment, whereas upon retrieval, the transmission drives a motor for retrieval of the decoy. The system is thus reusable, fast reacting, and also minimizes range penalty considerations because the decoy is only deployed when needed. In one embodiment, the system accommodates both a towing cable and a fiber-optic signal cable in which apparatus for unwinding of the cables is mechanically ganged together so that the cables pay out at the same rate. This type of payout lowers the stress on the fragile fiber-optic cable making possible multiple deployments and retrievals in response to separate threats during a mission. In another embodiment, a single, structural member with embedded conductors is utilized to connect the towed device to the round assembly.
摘要翻译： 快速的部署和检索系统允许在几秒钟内快速部署诱饵以响应传入的威胁，从而消除了预部署的必要性，通过检索允许在响应任务期间多次重掷和部署诱饵 威胁，并相应降低生命周期成本。 在通过警告接收器检测到进入的威胁时，耦合到传输器的控制器释放用于控制部署速度的制动器，而在检索时，变速器驱动用于检索诱饵的马达。 因此，只有在需要的时候部署诱饵才能使系统重复使用，快速反应，同时也减小了距离惩罚的考虑。 在一个实施例中，系统容纳牵引电缆和光纤信号电缆，其中用于电缆解开的装置机械地组合在一起，使得电缆以相同的速率支付。 这种类型的支付降低了脆弱的光纤电缆的压力，从而可以在任务期间响应单独的威胁进行多次部署和检索。 在另一个实施例中，使用具有嵌入导体的单个结构构件将拖曳装置连接到圆形组件。
