Improvements in and relating to carrying a munition on a munition launcher platform

摘要

In a method of carrying a munition (100) on a munition launcher platform (200), the munition launcher platform (200) is provided with a data tag activator and a data tag reader (210). A munition (100) is attached to the munition launcher platform (200), the munition (100) being provided with a data tag (120) (i.e. an RF data tag). An activation signal is transmitted from the data tag activator (210) to the data tag (120). As a result of receiving the activation signal, the data tag (120) returns a data response to the data tag reader (210). The receiving of the data response provides the munition launcher platform (200) with an indication that the munition (100) is still attached to the munition launcher platform (200).
