Wessex Helicopter. Clearance for Carriage and Release, Internal,ly and Externally, of the Practice Depth Charge MK.15 MOD.12
Abstract
Test results indicated that the Practice Depth Charge Mk. 15 Mod. 12 is suitable for service use, when carried on externally fitted light series bomb carriers, or released through the cabin flare chute or open doorway of the Wessex helicopter. Sole plates must be fitted to the light series bomb carriers to enable the stores to be securely crutched. Fuze setting control links are of a suitable length to withdraw the No. 8 Arming Wires successfully under all conditions of airspeed. The suspension lug must be positioned 90 degrees radiallye hydrostatic bellows of the store. An analogous clearance can be given for carriage and release of the Practice Depth Charge Mk. 15 Mod. 12 from all Marks of Wessex helicopters.
