ABSTRACT:
A launcher for a rocket powered round in which the launcher has a launch cartridge coupled thereto and the launch cartridge is insertable into the tailpipe of the round. The launch cartridge has a launch cartridge charge and an initial launch volume intermediate the launch cartridge charge and the round. A probe is coupled to the launch cartridge and extends into the nozzle of the rocket powered round to reduce the gas passage area therethrough during at least a first portion of the launch phase thereof. The probe may be permanently attached to the launch cartridge and thus remain part of the launcher or the probe may be detachably mounted on the launch cartridge and is driven into nozzle sealing relationship to the nozzle when the round is launched to prevent ignition of the rocket propellant grain.
