An airborne missile launcher for air launching of man-portable, tube-launched missiles includes a central support frame with attachment means for detachable attachment to an aircraft or other launching platform, with a central frame member having a launch tube saddle support assembly at each side of the frame member with quick detachable clamp means and an alignment guide for quickly positioning and securing launch tubes into position with auto connecting means for automatically connecting the electronics control system and coolant gas to the launch tube assembly upon clamping the assembly into position. An aerodynamic shell encloses the support structure and includes a quick release cover for providing access to the tube clamp assemblies for loading and unloading launch tubes. |
