    Abstract: A system for launching a payload from an aircraft includes a magazine and a conveying mechanism. The magazine has a payload chamber at a first end of the magazine for retaining the payload and an exit port through which the payload may be launched, with the magazine configured to be disposed at or below an outer skin surface of the aircraft. The conveying mechanism includes a rotatable conveying member for contacting an outer surface of the payload when the payload is loaded into the payload chamber and for selectably rotating so as to cause the payload to be launched out of the magazine through the exit port. The system may optionally include a pivoting mechanism for pivoting the magazine between a stowed orientation and a deployed orientation, wherein the first end extends outside the outer skin surface in the deployed orientation.
