PAYLOAD LAUNCHING ARRANGEMENT AND A METHOD FOR LAUNCHING A PAYLOAD

摘要

The present invention concerns a method for launching a payload (3) by means of an arrangement (1 ), which is configured for storing and launching a payload (3). A launch compartment (5) of the arrangement (1 ) is configured to eject the payload (3) from the launch compartment (5) via a push-out chamber (7) to an airflow (AF), which during use of the arrangement (1 ) flows over an aerodynamic surface (9) of the arrangement (1 ). An air intake (13) is formed in the aerodynamic surface (9) and is coupled to the push-out chamber (7) and/or launch compartment (5) via an internal air transfer arrangement (17) comprising an openable closure member (11) configured to close and open the internal air transfer arrangement (17).
