ABSTRACT:
A rail launcher for suspending different types of flying bodies from a carrier such as a carrier aircraft, is constructed as an elongated, substantilly empty shell with cross-sectional configurations which vary along the length of the shell housing. Different types of rail pairs are provided along a downwardly facing side of the shell housing for accommodating different types of flying bodies of various lengths. All the components required for strapping, retaining, ignition, and control purposes are mounted in cells of the shell housing. Due to the use of modular housing mounting means, the same type of rail launcher can be adapted for attachment to different types of carrier aircraft.
