<p>Disclosed are systems and methods for retaining and deploying a plurality of canards (108) and canard covers (110) on a projectile. The projectile includes a projectile housing (102) defining an interior chamber (104) and a longitudinal axis (A), canards rotatably mounted to the housing, canard covers, a bobbin movably disposed in the interior chamber of the housing along the longitudinal axis, and rocker arms. The canards mounted for movement from a stowed position to a deployed position. The canard covers have a hook element (112) and are adapted to cover respective slots formed in the housing. The bobbin (116) has first and second ends (118, 120) and a retaining surface (122) proximate the second end. Rocker arms (124) have a first and second arm end (126, 128), with a canard retaining slot (130) defined therebetween. The first arm end includes a latch element (132) for engaging with the canard cover element, and the second arm end is positioned proximate the retaining surface.</p> |
