	Water Rocket Launcher Index
		The use of the launcher is extremely strightforward.
		When the rocket is released, the launch tube provides as much acceleration as possible with as little loss of liquid as possible until the nozzle reaches the end of the launch tube.
		Should you suspect that the rocket is about to fail or, for some reason it does not launch, or maybe an animal (such as dog or a boy scout) strays into the launch area, you may wish to dump the air as quickly as possible.

		The 90 mm M79 Manual Rocket Launcher (Ručni bacač raketa - 90 mm M79) nicknamed "Osa" (a word meaning wasp) is a light, reuseable, and effective rocket launcher system made of fiber-reinforced plastics.
		It consists of the launcher, the CN-6 Sighting piece, a rocket, and the carrying case for said rocket.
		It is extremely similar in design to the M90 Rocket Launcher.

	BM-21 122-mm Multiple Rocket Launcher
		The launcher is traversed forward towards the cab for traveling and for firing uses two stabilizing jacks at the rear of the vehicle.
		Rockets must always be fired with the vehicle parked obliquely to the target to avoid blast damage to the unprotected cab.
		Although the BM-21 rockets are smaller in caliber than previous models, the warhead is equal to that of the 140-mm rocket, and the range exceeds that of the older 140-mm and 240-mm models.

	Chemical Rocket Launcher
		Unfortunately, rocket launchers remain expensive and prone to failure due to temperature extremes, enormous heat flux in the throat of the thrust chamber, severe vibration, low reliability of high-performance turbopumps, and the use of corrosive and flammable chemicals.
		Solid rocket in tube is a solid propellant rocket which burns on the outside and flies inside a steel tube or a tunnel.
		Steam rockets cannot be used as rocket launchers because their specific impulse is too low and their dry weight is too high.

	M72 LAW
		The launcher, which consists of two tubes, one inside the other, serves as a watertight packing container for the rocket and houses a percussion-type firing mechanism that activates the rocket.
		The gas pressure pushes the rocket toward the target and exits to the rear of the launcher as the backblast.
		The propellant, its igniter, and the fin assembly are in the rocket's motor.

	Super Bazooka: M20 3.5in Rocket Launcher
		The 3.5in rocket launcher M20 is a two-piece, smooth bore weapon of the open tube type, and is fired electrically.
		The primary functions of a rocket launcher are to ignite the rocket propellant and give it initial direction in flight.
		Reactive forces are slight since the propulsion of the rocket is due to the jet action of the propellant powder in the motor body, and not a gas pressure built up inside the tube.

		A military rocket launcher was found Tuesday near a rail-transit station, but the FBI said it looks to be a less-powerful training model unable to bring down an aircraft or destroy a train.
		The empty launcher had been fired at one time, but investigators had not determined when or how it was used, he said.
		The launcher, which was about 3 feet tall and 6 inches wide, was found on an embankment next to a railroad track parallel to the city's east-west rail-transit line.

	Software for Fun and Education
		For the typical free flight rocket, the degree of stability inherent in its design is largely dependent on the relative position of the rocket's Center of Mass (CM) to its Center of Pressure (CP).
		This usually requires that more of the rocket's mass is concentrated at the front end of the rocket, while the fins are positioned as far aft as possible to maximize their effectiveness as a stabilizing device.
		A few of the primary factors that influence the degree of stability needed are, the severity of the wind gusts and turbulence in the air, the speed your rocket flies, and the shape and distribution of mass in the rocket nose, body, and fins.

	Launcher construction in Germany based on P. Grosse's copper tube launcher (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		It is quick to build; but soon the main disadvantage bothered me: it requires a relatively heavy nozzle assembly, which brings the CG (center of gravity) of the rocket towards the nozzle end of the rocket.
		Then, after the LT is inserted into the launcher, a 4 mm beheaded nail is pushed into the horizontal air inlet, all the way in, through the holes, anchoring the LT very solidly in the launcher.
		Note that the launch tube is not secured enough inside the launcher: it is pulled out of the launcher and falls back in.

		I have designed fins that come in several sections, so when the rocket launches, the fin's size is adequate to insure near-perfect stability from it's slowest speed, up to about 100 mph.
		At that point, the outer section is shed, once again giving the rocket it's maximum efficiency fin until it reaches the next speed "bump", up around 300 mph.
		Once the second sections are shed, the rocket is now trimmed for the rest of it's ascent.

	Ian's Cable-Tie Rocket Launcher
		To launch a water rocket, you of course need some sort of apparatus to apply pressure to the bottle and point it in a roughly vertical direction.
		However when the 'trigger ring' is pushed upwards, it prevents the heads of the cable ties from moving outwards, retaining the rocket on the launcher.
		A typical launch sequence is to fill the bottle with around 30% water, tip the milk crate and launcher over so the launch tube is pointing slightly downwards, then slide the bottle over the launch tube and the 'O' ring.
