ABSTRACT:
A multiple missile ejection system (10) by which first and second missiles (14) and (16) are stored in a single launch tube (12). Each missile is ejected by a gas bag. In a particular embodiment, two gas bags are used. The first gas bag (18) is mounted between the first and second missiles (14) and (16) respectively. The second gas bag (20) is mounted between the second missile (16) and an end of the launch tube. When deflated, the first gas bag (18) has a longitudinal aperture (28) through the center thereof which allows for the ejection of the second missile (16) by the second gas bag (20).
