A method and structure for a full-bore artillery projectile fin deployment
device comprising a projectile stabilization fin comprising an aperture
and a movable pawl; a rod comprising a head portion and a shaft portion
terminating with a beveled tip configured for engaging the pawl; a
tailboom configured for housing the fin, wherein the tailboom comprises a
hollow bore configured for receiving the rod; a pin slotted through the
aperture and attached to the tailboom; and a bias member adjacent to the
head portion of the rod. The rod is slotted to simultaneously engage a
plurality of fins. The tailboom comprises a forward end and a rearward
end and a slot configured for permitting the fin to articulate out of the
tailboom, and wherein the tailboom connects to a projectile.
Additionally, the power source for the device is the naturally occurring
launch accelerations.
