AIR ROCKET COMPLEX Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC B64G5/00 B64D3/00 B64G1/14 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to aircraft and aerospace engineering. Proposed complex comprises glider, rope-cord, aircraft to tow glider and carrier rocket to put spacecraft into orbit. Carrier rocket has hose cone accommodating spacecraft jointed with carrier rocket body, ground transporter-launcher with power plant to support glider and allow take-off of aircraft and glider, and functional systems. Carrier rocket is arranged inside glider airframe that has bottom part to be separated from top part to launch carrier rocket. Rope-cord is jointed with carrier rocket nose cone housing. Spacecraft is jointed with carrier rocket nose cone housing and allows separation of rope-cord from the glider, separation of spacecraft and noose cone from carrier rocket body, as well as pulling them inside aircraft airframe via rear cargo door by means of rope-cord and winch arranged inside aircraft airframe.

EFFECT: preservation of spacecraft in case of carrier rocket faulty launch.
