摘要

A military drone is stored and transported within a launch tube of essentially square cross section. During transport and prior to launch the drone is jigged accurately in position by two sets of clamps. One set of clamps is applied to the hinges (6) linking the main body and folded fins (L2.1). A second clamp is applied to guide tubes associated with a second set (L4.1) of stabilizing fins.
