Abstract (en)
A release device (1) for releasing a countermeasure apparatus (5) housed inside a cavity of the countermeasure having an exit opening (7) through which to expel the apparatus (5). The device has a body (11) plugging the opening (7); at least a first actuating member (27) movable axially between a first and a second position as the countermeasure is fired; and at least one retaining member (38) movable axially between a retaining position, in which it engages a portion of the countermeasure, and a release position, in which it disengages the portion of the countermeasure to detach the device (1) from the countermeasure. Movement of the first actuating member from the first position to the second position activates drainage of a fluid from inside a seat (17, 19), so as to move the retaining member from the retaining position to the release position.
