This report describes the development of a delay ignition system for a submarine launched marine signal. The igniter, which incorporates a pyrotechnic delay element, was designed to transfer ignition from the payload expelling charge to the flare candle. The design eliminates ignition failures caused by water plumes extinguishing the igniters as the flare payload assembly is ejected from the signal canister.
