ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a safety device positioned on a charge releasable from a carrier that, firstly prevents the untimely activation of the charge when this charge is hooked on beneath the carrier and, secondly, makes it possible to know whether any attempt at activation has been made beforehand, in doing so through the display of a position of a sensor of the carrier, forming part of the safety device. The safety device is deployed by means of a cable connected to the carrier. At the moment of release, the cable provided with a knob uses a driving system to drive a sensor which is itself locked by a locking system enabling the display of the position of the sensor and thus releasing the driving system permitting the activation of the charge.
