ABSTRACT:
The stores ejection system and method of the present invention provide automatic pre-load device, such as a pneumatically-operated pre-load piston, to pre-load a store ejection ram into contact with a bomb or other store prior to store ejection. Mechanical shock to the store during ejection is thereby minimized. The ejection system automatically retracts following store ejection to minimize ejection system aerodynamic drag during flight.
