Abstract

The present invention regards a pyrotechnic countermeasure (15, 25) dispensing system (1) comprising a set of contacting members (27, 27′) of a launching electronic circuitry (19). A first magazine (A) is mountable in said housing (23) in such way that a contacting body (41) of each pyrotechnic countermeasure (25) being in electrical communication with a dedicated contacting member (27) of the launching electronic circuitry (19), when the system (1) is ready to use. A central electronic unit (3) is associated with the launching electronic circuitry (19) for actuating of the pyrotechnic countermeasure (25) accommodated in the first magazine (A) in dependence upon a detected threat (29). A second magazine (B) designed for accommodation of at least one intelligent pyrotechnic countermeasure (15) is mountable in contact with the launching electronic circuitry (19) so that a contacting body (41) of said intelligent pyrotechnic countermeasure (15) will be set in electrical communication with a dedicated contacting member (27) of the launching electronic circuitry (19) via an adapter device (33, 33′, 34).
