The system and apparatus of this invention provides for a rapidly loaded, palletized, non-dedicated fixed or rotary wing aircraft based, manned observation, sensor launch system, with self powered sensing and targeting pod, multi-frequency antenna array, and with C4I analysis and control capabilities. The system may be used to deploy and manipulate autonomous and remote control vehicles, for the purpose of recovering and protecting persons in peril; containing/remediating toxic spills; sensing/detection; fire fighting; ship towing; or surface based refueling and support. Although not the primary purpose, this system can also be used for to support an offensive weapons system which could be used to selectively eliminate various targets with a standoff delivery capability. The system and apparatus of the present invention is generally comprised of a removable pallet assembly adapted for loading into, and mounting to the floor of, the interior of the aircraft; a seating assembly moveably mounted to the pallet assembly; an integrated door assembly retractably mounted to the pallet assembly and adapted fit into an opening in the aircraft upon removal of the aircraft side door member, the integrated door assembly having a door frame defining a periphery; at least one remote sensing pod retractably attached to the door frame adapted for deployment from the interior of the aircraft to the exterior of the aircraft; at least one radar member retractably attached to the door frame adapted for deployment from the interior of the aircraft to the exterior of the aircraft; at least one antenna array retractably attached to the door frame adapted for deployment from the interior of the aircraft to the exterior of the aircraft; and control means for coordinating the members and functions of the apparatus.
