Weapons & Stores Release

A mandated change is taking place in DoD’s approach to weapons release. The High maintenance pyrotechnic method of weapons ejection is being replaced by pneumatic pylon/rack systems. DRYTECH currently provides desiccant filters that provide extremely dry air to the accumulator rams, eliminating any potential freeze ups at altitude.

Weapons and Stores Release Systems

Drytech provides a range of desiccant filter modules that purify and dry compressed gas for pneumatic systems providing greater reliability and maintainability over legacy pyrotechnic systems.
