ABSTRACT:
A frame open on one side, including two parallel missile-supporting shelves interconnected on the opposite side, is mounted on a transport vehicle so as to be swingable about three mutually orthogonal axes for alignment of these shelves with respective ramps on a launching vehicle upon a docking of the two vehicles. The missiles are fastened to their shelves by pivoted clamps transferring them to the adjoining ramp faces by swinging about axes parallel to the longitudinal shelf and ramp edges. Locking elements on the ramp faces engage the missiles, or their containers, whereupon they are released from the clamps of the supporting frame.
