Abstract
In a canister carrying a missile having two stages of different diameters, flexible pads are provided to cushion the smaller diameter stage of the missile. The pad is a relatively flexible elastomer folded over on itself which, when the missile is fired, unrolls to a stowed position to allow passage of the larger diameter first stage of the missile.
