BUNDLE INCLUDING TWO PAIRS OF TANKS AND AIRBORNE LAUNCHER INCLUDING THE BUNDLE

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem of the restrictions on a predetermined number about the size of an airborne launcher brought about by use of the tanks aligned forward and backward for each other along an axial line of the launcher and having a circular cross section, to explain in details, the problem of restrictions about a system for fixing and releasing the launcher and restrictions about the position of a landing device. PSOLUTION: A bundle includes two pairs of cylindrical tanks (11 and 11, 12 and 12) having the same volume, and each pair of tanks in the bundle includes two tanks having the propellant being suitable to flow by the same volume and at the same flow rate and having the same density in them. The four tanks are directly and mutually mounted through a reinforcing hoop 20 so that center of gravity of each of the pairs always exists on an axial line of the bundle 10 while the propellant flows.
