BRU-36A/A Bomb Ejector Rack

The BRU-36 Bomb Rack is used by the US Navy. The BRU-36A/A bomb ejector rack is a parent rack which provides for the carriage of single stores, ITERs, or rack-suspended missile launchers using 14-inch suspension hooks. Features of the BRU-36A/A include a safety interlock and variable ejection force control. The safety interlock me-chanically prevents opening of the rack and also locks and unlocks the rack during loading operations. Adjustable sway braces are also incorporated to brace stores, racks, and launchers. Sensing switches are incorporated to indicate to the stores management processor that a store is aboard or has been released.
