ABSTRACT:
A deployment device for stabilizing fins of a projectile includes at least one pallet and a holding device for each fin. The pallet is oriented to receive an aerodynamic flow when the projectile is fired and thus transfers a resultant strain to the fin to deploy it away from the projectile. The deployment device can be used for fins of a projectile fired from smooth barrelled weapons.
