Abstract
The invention relates to a container for jamming means (4), for example, radar chaff, IR burning bodies or similar. Such containers (1) filled with jamming means (4) are arranged behind each other in a storing space in connection to dispensing device on an aircraft, for example, an aeroplane. For the purpose of diverting or for other purpose the containers are dispensed from the dispenser device. The container according to the invention comprises a frame construction (2) and a loosly installed insert (3) in this frame construction defining a space for the jamming means (4).
