ABSTRACT:
A field separable ordnance stepover bracket connects abutting ordnance transfer fuse cables across the interstage junction of a multistage missile system using a plug and a receptacle. The plug receives a first set of ordnance transfer cables that terminate in percussion devices; and fits with the receptacle which receives a second set of similar ordnance transfer fuse cables. For maintenance, the plug is simply unplugged from the receptacle to allow access to the interior of the missile when the interstage junction is opened. For flight interstage separation, the fast burning ordnance transfer fuse cables ignite the percussion charges which are fixed in proximity to a linear shaped charge that circumscribes a flight separation junction. The percussion charges ignite the linear shaped charge which detonates to separate the stages of the missile.
