METHOD OF PREPARING MISSILES FOR LAUNCHING Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC B64D7/08 F41F3/06 

FIELD: aviation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to equipment of aircraft with missiles. Proposed method consists in placing missiles in fuselage (2) armament compartment (1) closed by moving flaps (3). Each rocket (4) is individually suspended on the aircraft launching device (ALD) (5) one above the other, into at least one unit section (6), forming a vertical row. When control command arrives to feed rocket from section to preset position: open (7) movable flap of section (6), extend (8) lower rocket (9) section in-the-air position corresponding to firing position for each of missiles in section. After separation of rocket from ALD during start-up, closing (10) of flap is made or possibility of movement of next lower missile (9) of section is possible in prestart position.

EFFECT: optimal use of internal space of in-fuselage compartment of weapons for fuselage of any shape, elimination of action of reactive power moment on aircraft airframe relative to longitudinal axis during transfer of missiles to prestart position, and also reduction of time cycle of this transfer.
