ABSTRACT:
A release assembly using separation nuts and thrusters for ejecting a body ith spin from a vehicle. The separation nuts are manifolded together in pairs so that failure of one squib of a pair will not affect actuation of the separation nuts, the separation nuts connecting the body to the vehicle. A pair of thrusters is manifolded together so that a single gas cartridge actuates both, the thrusters being situated to impart radial and axial components of velocity to the body upon separation to eject the body with spin from the vehicle. An electrical command energizes the squibs and gas cartridge simultaneously to actuate the separation nuts and thrusters.
