Engineering Design Handbook - Propellant Actuated Devices
The first aircraft personnel escape catapults and associated devices powered by solid propellants were called cartridge actuated devices (CAD) a name which arose from the similarity between their propellant containers and cartridge cases for conventional and small arms munitions.
As new applications were developed this similarity disappeared but the name continued to be used. Many of the older records will show this name.
