METHOD FOR LAUNCHING COUNTER-MEASURES, AND ARRANGEMENT FOR STORING AND LAUNCHING COUNTER-MEASURES

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and an arrangement for launching counter-measures, such as flares and chaff. According to the invention, the counter-measures are launched in a direction obliquely forwards and upwards relative to the aircraft and a low dynamic pressure is created across the dispenser's launch openings. The arrangement comprises compartments for counter-measures which are provided with openings and are intended for launching the counter-measures in a direction obliquely forwards and upwards relative to the aircraft. The invention increases the possibilities of releasing a target and reduces the noise levels of the sounds which can occur in emptied compartments.
