Missile container and method of operating a missile container

Abstract

A missile container has a container housing, a container roof, at least one canister for holding a missile which, in a storage position, is disposed on the container housing, and a movement mechanism for moving the canister from the storage position into an operating position. The elements arranged in the interior of the container housing are protected against external weather influences. In the operating position, the canister is held at least partially outside the container housing by the movement mechanism and the container roof is closed and shields a container interior against the outside.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
