ABSTRACT:
An electromagnetic parallel rail launcher with an augmentation winding for post-firing inductive energy recovery. A power supply includes a storage inductor which, in conjunction with the inductance of the augmenting winding, provides the inductive energy storage prior to firing. As the launcher projectile exits, the storage inductor is substantially decoupled from the rail and augmenting winding inductance, so that a high efficiency inductive energy transfer may be accomplished between the rails and augmenting winding.
