A damper system for a pyrotechnic time delay may comprise: a firing pin; a moveable housing defining a chamber therein; a fixed piston comprising a piston head disposed in the chamber, a first rod extending from the piston head axially outward of the moveable housing, and a second rod configured to fixedly couple to a housing; a first spring extending axially from the moveable housing to the firing pin; and a second spring extending axially from the moveable housing to the firing pin.

Primer adapter assemblies have a body having a cylindrical exterior sidewall adapted to be closely received in a chamber having a chamber diameter, the body defining a central passage including a cylindrical aft portion adapted to closely receive a primer having a primer diameter greater than or equal to the chamber diameter, the body having an aft surface, and a malleable skirt extending aft of the aft surface and defining an installation aperture, the malleable skirt being operable to deform inward to form an opening having a diameter less than the primer diameter, such that a primer in the cylindrical aft portion of the central passage is retained. The skirt may have a tapered cross-section. The skirt may encircle the central passage. The skirt may be concentric with the central passage. The body may include a flange defining the aft surface and having a diameter greater than the chamber diameter.

Rocket armament launchable from a tubular launcher with an outside launcher non-ignition securing and motor separation during flight and a method to prevent the ignition of the armaments rocket even in the event of actuation of the armaments pyrotechnic assembly, which normally serves to eject the armament from the launcher and to ignite its rocket motor, wherein the armament comprises a gas dispersion assembly, which when the armament is not encased in the tubular launcher, prevents the ignition of the rocket motor even if the armaments pyrotechnic assembly is actuated; and a cutting and separation assembly that is actuated by the pressure of the rocket motor gases for mechanically cutting a structural connection between the rocket motor and the armaments effective payload and separate them during their flight.
