ABSTRACT:
An electro-mechanical mechanism is disclosed which controls safety-armingring of an air-launched missile's rocket motor and safety-arming of the warhead. The mechanism has an out-of-line safety pyrotechnic design to maintain the electric firing circuits and explosive train in an open, safe position until a complete sequence of events occurs. Similarly, a second sequence must occur before warhead arming can proceed.
