JETTISONABLE POD FOR AIRCRAFT CARRIED ROCKET MISSILES

摘要

A pod for aircraft carried rocket missiles has its body molded of foam plastic, with parallel bores therein, each providing a missile chamber. There is a rigid tube in a bore spaced from the top of the body. A rigid wall member closely overlies the top surface of the body along a substantial part of its length; suspension eyes are secured to it. Rods embedded in the body material connect the tube and wall member to define a rigid beam that stiffens the body and supports air and mass loads on it.
