ABSTRACT:
A missile launcher tube from which a missile is fired from a forward end causing gases to exit out the aft, or exhaust gas, end of a launcher tube in which the aft end is provided with a conical surface (flare) forming a nozzle so that as the missile exits from the forward end, a forward pressure force created by the exhaust gas acting on the conical surface as the exhaust gas exits from the aft end opposes and reduces an aft end directed recoil force. The conical nozzle is located entirely within the outer surface of the launcher tube so that the launcher tube envelope is not disturbed.
