MODULAR PAYLOAD WARHEAD
A warhead casing and method of inserting compartments into a warhead casing. The system includes a nose section, a tail section, and a tubular body section therebetween. The sections define a lengthwise axis of the casing. The system further includes a first plurality of compartments radially arranged along a perimeter of the tubular body section. The first plurality of compartments form a first cross-sectional layer. The system further includes a central cavity extending along the lengthwise axis of the casing, the central cavity being defined at least by an inner surface of the first plurality of compartments or the tubular body section.
COUNTERMEASURE
A countermeasure (200) for use against a vehicle having an electric motor comprising at least one magnet. The countermeasure (200) comprises an ejection system (205) comprising a plurality of pieces of magnetic material (203). The ejection system (205) is configured to release the plurality of pieces (203) in response to receipt of a trigger signal (209). Also a method of disrupting the operation of a vehicle having an electric motor comprising at least one magnet using an ejection system (205) containing a plurality of pieces (203) of magnetic material. The method comprises detecting the vehicle; receiving, at the dispersal system, a trigger signal (209); in response to the receipt of the trigger signal (209), the ejection system (205) releasing the plurality of pieces (203); some of the plurality of pieces (203) being attracted to the magnet, sticking to the magnet, and thereby obstructing the motor.
Rocket for artificial rainfall using ejection hygroscopic flare
Provided is a rocket for artificial rainfall using an ejection hygroscopic flare, the rocket including: a rocket body configured to descend with a parachute after flight by thrust, and having a hygroscopic flare discharge outlet; a communication module installed in the rocket body, and configured to transmit and receive a launch command and an ejection command with a ground station; an ejection hygroscopic flare installed in the rocket body and filled with cloud seeds and a burning material therein; and a hygroscopic flare ejection device configured to separate and eject the ejection hygroscopic flare from an inside of the rocket body to an outside thereof.

SCENTED THROWING DART
An improved method, device, and system for hunting and selectively placing a scented hunting aid is provided. A hand-thrown dart may have a tip and a flight attached opposite thereto. The flight may carry a scented fluid or scented material thereon. The flight is configured to be positioned above the ground after the dart has been thrown by hunter from a tree stand. The dart enables the hunter to selectively throw the dart such that its placement is upwind from a desired game animal such as a buck deer that the hunter desires to attract. Some implementations utilize peelable covers to release the scented material, while other embodiments utilize a porous or sponge-like flight that is saturated with a scented fluid.

Fire retardant delivery method and apparatus
A method and apparatus for delivering fire retardant to a ground fire from an aircraft. The apparatus includes a dispenser casing that dispenses fire retardant after the casing has been released from an aircraft. The apparatus includes a dispenser fuse that actuates the dispenser casing to dispense the fire retardant in response to one or more predetermined conditions.

PROJECTILE DELIVERY OF DISRUPTIVE MEDIA FOR TARGET PROTECTION FROM DIRECTED ENERGY
Methods, devices, and systems may protect a target from undesirable electromagnetic radiation by detecting electromagnetic radiation (including coherent radiation such as laser beams) aimed at a target from a source; calculating a first release position to disrupt the electromagnetic radiation thereby protecting the target; launching a projectile that may include a disruptive medium or a disruptive-medium precursor; directing the projectile to the first release position; and releasing the disruptive medium from the projectile at the first release position, such that the releasing of the disruptive medium forms a cloud of the disruptive medium.
