In one embodiment a method of automated missile launcher reloading includes positioning a canister positioning device proximate to a canister. The canister positioning device is coupled to a pivot arm by one or more pivot joints and the pivot arm is coupled to a tower. The method also includes coupling the canister positioning device to the canister, attaching a hoist cable to the canister, and raising the pivot arm on the tower from a first position on the tower to a second position on the tower. The method further includes adjusting a positioning of the pivot arm to position the canister proximate to a launcher cell, adjusting a positioning of the pivot joints to align the canister with the launcher cell, and lowering the hoist cable to lower the canister into the launcher cell.
