Abstract:
A retractable, self-erecting wing for a low speed missile, having a double walled fabric body held in extended position by spring loaded struts, the fabric enclosing an air pocket which acts as a damper to prevent the wing from fluttering under certain aerodynamic conditions. The wing is extended by a hinged strut structure and folds into a very small space adjacent the outer wall of the missile body. The structure enables a large area wing to be stowed in a minimum of space so that the maximum internal volume is available for payload. In stowed condition the wing is completely enclosed in the body for minimum drag during any high speed portion of the missile flight, multiple wings being released when required by a simple mechanism.
