Description
These thrusters are pressure actuated, gas operated piston type, cartridge actuated devices designed to transmit thrust by piston action to a designated mechanism, thereby performing such pre ejection functions as equipment stowage, seat positioning, and canopy or hatch removal.
The A1 modification of each thruster is basically similar to its respective earlier model with the exception that the pressure inlet port is designed to prevent a bulkhead type fitting from coming in contact with the firing pin component thereby preventing accidental shearing of the shear pin.
