Zusammenfassung:	A pod structure 10 for containing deployable stores (e.g. ordnance such as rockets, missiles or bombs) has an externally mountable pod housing, which may be mounted on an aircraft 12 and which is optimized to provide a configurable interior volume accommodating multiple different store configurations. The pod housing has a cross-sectional configuration optimized to minimize a radar signature and an induced aerodynamic drag. The pod structure 10 further has a pod door assembly integral with the pod housing which has a plurality of pod doors and one or more seal door mechanism assemblies.
