Launching system and launching apparatus

摘要

A flying object (11) capable of being launched in air is detachably mounted on a wing body (12) of a launching apparatus (10). The launching apparatus (10) is towed by an aircraft (30) via a cable (20) so as to be run and taken off. After raising of the launching apparatus (10) to a launching height of the flying object (11) by the aircraft (30), the flying object (11) is released from the wing body (12) in air and then the flying object (11) is ignited and launched in the air. The system for launching in air can be developed without newly developing a platform as a mother ship so that the research cost can be remarkably reduced. In the case that a small artificial satellite is installed in a flying object (11), it is possible to develop an artificial satellite smoothly and quickly applicable to security matters and disaster observation.
