Unmanned vehicle with multiple payload platforms

A method of deploying multiple payloads from an unmanned vehicle, the method comprising:

• coupling at least one attachment plate to the unmanned vehicle;
• coupling a first control module to the at least one attachment plate, the first control module having a first interlock feature;
• coupling a second control module to the at least one attachment plate, the second control module having a second interlock feature;
• prior to deploying the unmanned vehicle, moving the first interlock feature from a first position to a second position and the second interlock feature from a third position to a fourth position;
• energizing one or more first processors in the first control module with a first energy source when the first interlock feature is in the second position;
• energizing one or more second processors in the second control module with a second energy source when the second interlock feature is in the fourth position.
