PMEL is a pneumatic launcher designed to eject modern medium- and long-range air-to-air missiles from high-performance manned and unmanned platforms, including the Saab Gripen. As a combined pylon and launcher unit, the PMEL is currently designed for use under the fuselage on modern high-performance fighter jets to reduce weight and frontal cross section. PMEL is not subject to International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR) export rules, making it an ITAR-free solution for high-performance ejection of air-to-air
missiles.
