PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved missile launcher. SOLUTION: This launcher includes cylindrical shell provided with a plenum or a manifold for changing direction of exhaust gas of the missile at a tail part. A plurality of exhaust gas ducts or exhaust induction tubes induces exhaust gas to near outlet edge of the launcher from the plenum. A projection part on the missile such as a guide rail or aerodynamic fin is arranged between the exhaust gas ducts on a missile main body. Since a tube like duct resists exhaust gas pressure with circumferential stress, weight reduction of the same can be carried out. Film of ablating material can be provided on the exhaust gas duct. The exhaust gas duct can be supported by a support beam extending in a longitudinal direction, preferably an I shape beam. As one embodiment, each I shape beam supports two exhaust gas ducts.
