Abstract: Various countermeasure expendables and methods of using said countermeasure expendables are provided herein. A countermeasure expendable comprising a canister. The countermeasure expendable includes at least one countermeasure payload operably engaged inside the canister, the at least one countermeasure payload having a volume of countermeasure material. The countermeasure expendable includes a squib operably engaged inside of the canister, wherein the squib is configured to propel the at least one countermeasure payload outside of the canister. The countermeasure expendable includes at least one time delaying assembly operably engaged with the at least one countermeasure payload, wherein the time delaying assembly is configured to dispense the volume of countermeasure material from the at least one countermeasure payload at a predetermined time interval.

Abstract: A thin film-retaining washer with custom geometry that may further provide for a simple press-on installation while maintaining retention of fasteners during assembly, shipping, handling, and/or use of associated systems. The present retaining hardware is easily manufactured from sheet or film materials with minimal post-processing and may be scaled and optimized for use with multiple size and style of fasteners. Further, the thickness profile of the thin film retaining hardware facilitates lobe spring deflection to further provide secure retention of the associated fasteners.

Abstract: An apparatus for dampening at least one optical instrument on a military platform. The apparatus includes a plate adapted to hold at least one optical instrument. The apparatus also includes at least one dampening assembly having a first end operably engaged with the plate and an opposing second end operably engaged with a platform. The at least one dampening assembly is also adapted to reduce the movement of the plate and optical device from a ballistic event created by a ballistic device on the platform.
