This invention comprises a multi-store, gas-fired launcher that fits into, and is electrically connected with, a transporting vehicle and that contains sequentially-stacked assemblies that generate sufficient gas force to discharge an individual store. An electrical pulse from the transporting vehicle cause a sequencer in the launcher to divert the charge to a burn resistor. At burn-out, a spring-activated striking arm punctures a C02 bottle which provides sufficient gas pressure to force the store out of the launcher.
