An aircraft (2) comprising a launch tube (14) through at least a portion of the aircraft (2), and through which an item (24) may be launched from the aircraft (2), the launch tube (14) comprising an opening (22) at an external surface of the aircraft (2). A component of a direction of the launch tube (14) is parallel to a lateral axis (20) of the aircraft (2). The component of the direction of the launch tube (14) that is parallel to the lateral axis (20) of the aircraft (2) may be greater than components parallel to a longitudinal axis (18) and a normal axis of the aircraft (2). For example, the component of the direction of the launch tube (14) parallel to the lateral axis (20) may have a greater order of magnitude than components parallel to the longitudinal and normal axes.
