A plurality of second vents are each in fluid communication with the second portion.

Abstract: A deployable mine clearance device is provided and comprises one or more blade members that are movable from a stowed position to a deployed position.

Abstract: A toy projectile launcher having a storage belt, a launch barrel, a cocking slide, an air piston assembly that includes an air nozzle and an air piston barrel, and a housing is disclosed. The storage belt contains projectile holders that are adapted to hold a projectile, such as a foam dart. The cocking slide can be moved forward and backward. When the cocking slide is moved backward, the air piston barrel moves backward and the air nozzle is retracted from a projectile holder, providing clearance for advancing a next projectile holder into a firing position. When the cocking slide is moved forward, the next projectile holder is advanced into the firing position and the air nozzle pushes on the next projectile holder to form an airtight seal between the launch barrel and air piston assembly.

Abstract: A system and method that uses one or more jet engines to remove unmanned aircraft from restricted airspace. Generally, the force created by a jet engine can be used to remove drones or other unwanted objects from the restricted airspace. Once the system determines the presence of an unauthorized aircraft or object within the restricted airspace, the jet engine(s) can be activated and used to pull the drone or flying object towards the jet engine though the force created by the intake of the jet engine(s), or to expel the drone or object from the restricted area through the force created by the exhaust of the jet engine(s).
