Ejection Seat	comment	An emergency device intended to allow the driver of a vehicle to escape if a devastating crash is inevitable. Any vehicle, that is — Space fighters, normal fighters, helicopters, giant mecha, submarines, secret agent super cars, and delivery vans are all likely to have an ejection seat installed. Usually triggered by a Big Red Button. A Sub-Trope of Abandon Ship: rather than just getting the heck out of (the) Dodge, the seat is helping you out (the door). When the pilot nears the ground, he may find himself hanging from a Parachute in a Tree. Deadly Escape Mechanism occurs if the ejection kills its user. Smaller cousin of the Escape Pod. Contrast Armored Coffins. See also Eject... Eject... Eject.... Examples

The eject was never for the driver, just the female navigator (it's suggested that too many women getting killed is bad for ratings). An ejector seat is improvised into a mortar to take out a pursuing car, and later having worked out that the navigator has sabotaged his vehicle, Jensen Ames forces a confession by driving under a low-roofed warehouse and threatening to eject her if she doesn't talk.

Rather than deal with their singing, Homer ejects himself and Bart into space, where they explode with a happy sigh. Earlier, in "Treehouse of Horror IX", Bart and Lisa are stuck in an Itchy and Scratchy cartoon where the title characters are trying to kill them. They get picked up by a police car, only to find that Itchy and Scratchy are driving. Bart then draws an "Eject" button and presses it so he and Lisa can escape.

She's tells the others It Has Been an Honor and destructs the pod, taking the fighters with her. When Shad and Nanelia are facing capture, they tell their Sapient Ship Nell to activate the Self-Destruct Mechanism, but she insists on ejecting them first in her own escape projectile. Fortunately there aren't any fighters left, so they're the Sole Survivors of the eponymous battle.

However, if you manage to somehow wreck it, but still get to the ground mostly in one piece, the seat likes to fire you backwards into the ground to hurt you. In addition to that, one of the cars Franklin has to steal in one of the missions is a spy car from a movie studio that comes equipped with an ejectable passenger seat. The actress who Franklin accidentally kidnapped found this out the hard way when Franklin pressed the button, not knowing what it would do.

Ejection Seat / int_49aa2aa4	comment	Ace Combat Ejection seats play a major role in Ace Combat 5: First, Cpt. Bartlett ejects from his damaged plane in the prologue and is picked up by an enemy spy ship, taking him out of the conflict until much later and promoting your character in his place. Edge is later shot down in a similar situation (the missile that took out Bartlett had been fired at her, but he pulled it away from her) at the end of a mission, with worsening conditions forcing you to finish the mission without her and come back the next day to rescue her. It serves as something of an epiphany for her, since before that point she becomes obsessed with protecting the flight lead, sticking close to you even when you give the squad orders to scatter and attack whatever they want, but she starts giving you more space after this point. Even later, after a ceremonial flight and patrol leads to fighting off a large wave of enemies, another wingman, Chopper, gets hit, but since you're over a crowded and populated city he decides to wait until enough people have evacuated before dropping his plane in the center of the stadium, to minimize casualties. He ends up waiting too long, and by the time there's enough people evacuated for him to safely go down, his ejection seat fails - it's also possible it was intentionally sabotaged, as the rest of the fight was clearly being interfered with by the 8492nd. When they ambush your squadron another two missions later, radio chatter mentions targeting the cockpit to make absolutely sure the legend of Razgriz dies, and Swordsman eventually tricks them by signalling you to eject before he shoots down the now-empty aircraft. In your later Boss Battle against Grabacr and Ofnir squadrons, it's mentioned that they also successfully eject, and turn up for one last showdown in the epilogue. Enemy aces in Ace Combat Zero sometimes manage to eject and survive the battle, according to the Assault Records, though survival is never guaranteed. Espada 1, for instance, only manages to both eject and survive long enough to get back into the air if you're playing as a Knight Ace (as a Mercenary he dies immediately, and as a Soldier he ejects but dies of his wounds shortly after), while Sorcerer 2 is killed when he ejects, only for his parachute to catch fire. Another ace is also noted to be named "The Guillotine" because of his habit of aiming for the cockpit to prevent his enemies from escaping. During the tutorial mission in Ace Combat: Assault Horizon, a QTE requires you to punch certain buttons to after your craft is hit. Failure to do so will end in a Game Over. Of course, successfully ejecting still results in the plane that shot you down turning around and ramming into you, at which point it turns out to be a dream.

Ejection Seat / int_5ada53ed	comment	James Bond: The one in the Aston Martin DB5 in Goldfinger (described in the page quote) is the front passenger seat, and Bond uses it to remove one of Goldfinger's Mooks from the car. During one scene in GoldenEye, Bond ejects himself and Natalya from a stolen prototype combat helicopter that was rigged to shoot itself with its own missiles. Of course, the ejection mechanism shot out the blades from the top rotor first, for fairly obvious reasons. In Tomorrow Never Dies, Bond uses an ejector to eject an unwanted co-pilot from his stolen fighter jet, downing another plane in the process. In Die Another Day, he uses it as a propellant to flip his Aston Martin back onto its wheels. Oh, and dodge a missile at high speed. In Skyfall it's Played for Laughs when Bond takes the Aston Martin from Goldfinger, complete with gadgets, out of a garage so that he and M can escape London. When M starts exasperating Bond, he flips up the secret panel on the gear-stick, revealing the red button, as if threatening to eject her. M, somewhat at the end of her tether, dares him to do it. In Spectre, Bond is being chased and running out of road, so he ejects himself and lands safely on the street above while the car crashes into the river. He also glances at the gear-stick of the DB5 when Swann is his partner, but proceeds to drive her to their next location.

One of the equippable abilities makes your ejection seat trigger automatically, while also giving you a temporary Invisibility Cloak when it does. Another popular option is the Nuclear Ejection. Players are also actively encouraged to fire upon ejecting pilots: one in game challenge explicitly tracks how many pilots you've killed this way.

Ejection Seat / int_6f2d1072	comment	The MechWarrior series has escape pods built into the cockpits of their BattleMechs that gave pilots a chance to survive a losing fight. In some games, they are seemingly powerful enough to get back to orbit under their own power, which is a good bit beyond the normal capabilities of ejection seats in the board game. Traditionally, the "Eject" button is basically a "Suicide" button for when a player gets stuck or crippled in the middle of nowhere, but Mechwarrior Living Legends allows players to bail out (in a full suit of Battlarmor) and continue fighting on foot, though with much weaker weapons (just an anti-infantry gatling gun) than dedicated Battlearmor players. In Mechwarrior 2 Mercenaries, ejecting allows you to continue on the campaign at the cost of losing your mech and failing to complete the mission you're currently on, potentially leading to a Non-Standard Game Over if you're out of replacement mechs and don't have enough money to buy a new one.

Ejection Seat / int_83d81bd4	comment	Ejection seats play a major role in Ace Combat 5: First, Cpt. Bartlett ejects from his damaged plane in the prologue and is picked up by an enemy spy ship, taking him out of the conflict until much later and promoting your character in his place. Edge is later shot down in a similar situation (the missile that took out Bartlett had been fired at her, but he pulled it away from her) at the end of a mission, with worsening conditions forcing you to finish the mission without her and come back the next day to rescue her. It serves as something of an epiphany for her, since before that point she becomes obsessed with protecting the flight lead, sticking close to you even when you give the squad orders to scatter and attack whatever they want, but she starts giving you more space after this point. Even later, after a ceremonial flight and patrol leads to fighting off a large wave of enemies, another wingman, Chopper, gets hit, but since you're over a crowded and populated city he decides to wait until enough people have evacuated before dropping his plane in the center of the stadium, to minimize casualties. He ends up waiting too long, and by the time there's enough people evacuated for him to safely go down, his ejection seat fails - it's also possible it was intentionally sabotaged, as the rest of the fight was clearly being interfered with by the 8492nd. When they ambush your squadron another two missions later, radio chatter mentions targeting the cockpit to make absolutely sure the legend of Razgriz dies, and Swordsman eventually tricks them by signalling you to eject before he shoots down the now-empty aircraft. In your later Boss Battle against Grabacr and Ofnir squadrons, it's mentioned that they also successfully eject, and turn up for one last showdown in the epilogue.

Ejection Seat / int_90e2f673	comment	BattleTech has these for its BattleMechs, usually with an automatic trigger in case of an ammo explosion that would otherwise destroy the 'Mech and the pilot with it. In some advanced designs, the entire head assembly comes free, but a plain old ejection after popping the canopy is still the default. It may be worth noting that the setting does canonically feature enemies ruthless enough to specifically gun for MechWarriors forced to do this. Aerospace fighters and conventional planes likewise typically mount ejection seats, though ejecting in high orbit presents some obvious problems for pilot retrieval; many ejected pilots have run out of life support before they could be retrieved. And most importantly, as in Real Life, ejecting has a not-insignificant chance to kill or injure (from scrapes and cuts to broken bones to being impaled on a jagged piece of metal). Some mechs mount full-head ejection systems. Rather than launching the pilot and seat through a blow-out panel in the cockpit, the entire mech's head is blasted off. On the one hand, this means that the pilot has an armored capsule that can protect them from battlefield hazards after they've ejected. On the other hand, the much stronger thrust needed to propel the multi-ton head sufficiently far enough away from the possibly exploding mech to be safe means that there's a much higher risk of the pilot sustaining serious injury. While ejection seats are almost ubiquitous, there are a number of aircraft and battlemechs that lack them, due design oversights, manufacturing flaws, design tradeoffs, or simple lack of care, turning these vehicles into Armored Coffins. The Lyran's Lucifer LCF-R15 Space Plane had its ejection system removed during a retrofit program to solve its many other issues, and the comically underarmored Spider SDR-5V scout battlemech, first produced in 2650, didn't receive an ejection seat for over four hundred years.

Ejection Seat / int_9b1333a5	comment	Top Gun shows that ejecting doesn't always help, as Goose smacks into the canopy and fatally breaks his neck. This was a real risk at one time; now the ejection seat in many fighters is designed with a mechanism to shatter the glass before the pilot could hit it in the case that the canopy is not out of the way already.note This is a critical component for ejection systems in aircraft that fly slowly or can hover. If the plane is not moving forward, the canopy separation charge does not have the power to throw the canopy clear of the seat's ejection line. The canopy of a Harrier VTOL aircraft has a very visible "squiggle" line on it; this is an explosive strip charge that shatters the canopy before the seat fires, and the seat itself extends above the pilot's head line so that the seat - not the pilot's head - will hit the canopy. While dangerous and potentially deafening, it is nevertheless substantially less dangerous than hitting the canopy. Additionally, the F-14's canopy had a tendency to get sucked into a low-pressure zone directly above the cockpit during ejection. In the sequel, Top Gun: Maverick, during the climax Maverick and Rooster are out of ammo with an enemy SU-57 on their tail. Maverick tells Rooster to eject, but unfortunately, the ejection seats don't work, and they're only saved by the timely arrival of Hangman, who takes the enemy down right when he's got a lock on them.

Ejection Seat / int_a4a6b86a	comment	Code Geass has ejector seats as a major feature of the Knightmare Frames. In fact, according to the backstory, this trope is the very reason Knightmares exist to begin withnote Britannia looked into putting Ejector Seats in traditional war machines like tanks, but then they added legs so they could escape the battlefield and it kind of snowballed from there. The fact that the Lancelot doesn't have one is made out to be a big deal. Other Knightmare Frames, often of a prototypical/limited production run does not have ejection seats either, such as the Gawain, which is more of a test-bed platform for new technologies, and likewise its derivative unit, Shinkiro. Interestingly, Lancelot Frontier, which is made from Lancelot's old spare parts, does have an ejection seat. Failsafe Failure is mostly averted, but there are a couple of moments. In one episode, we see a character (Kewell) die when the Guren Mk-II's radiant wave fries his machine's internal computers. In another, Lelouch is badly injured because the seat activates when he doesn't have a clear vector of escape, making it bounce off the ground and nearby objects like a rubber ball; it's frankly quite amazing that he didn't get whiplash. Given a good vector of ejection however, KMF pilot blocks would deploy parachutes to lower its speed and safely set it on the ground.

The pilot is seriously injured from the ejection and the landing, and the RIO is suitably exhausted and has minor injuries himself, even though they were flying at relatively slow speedsnote Despite trying to dodge a missile, they weren't flying very fast: they were trying to outmaneuver it, and the aerial acrobatics required relatively low speed to limit G force.

Understandably (as the head contains the cockpit), destruction of the cockpit results in the death of the Mechwarrior.

Ejection Seat / int_db96ded4	comment	The Hummingbird mecha suits from The Legend of Korra have these. To avoid the potential issue of getting the copilot killed because the pilot left flying, both occupants have independent toggle switches for both seats. Which sadly makes Hiroshi's Heroic Sacrifice possible.

Ejection Seat / int_e1550346	comment	SPY Fox in Dry Cereal uses this trope for the last puzzle. Comically, it's activated by a toaster. Subverted earlier in the game where Fox steals a truck to chase after the big bad. He sees an "eject" button on the truck's dash and assumes it's for an ejection seat, it was actually just for the cassette deck.

They have reserves. But there is actually a plot in the Darklighter arc of Star Wars: Empire which hinges on ejecting◊ in better suits while their modified TIEs get shot down.

Ejection Seat / int_e817aba1	comment	Harebrained Schemes' Battletech features ejection seats in all 'mechs (including in the SDR-5V Spider, which canonically lacks one). Unlike in the tabletop game, however, the ejection seats are manual only, with the exception of two story mode characters who auto-eject when their 'mechs are blown up. Pressing the button detonates the 'mech's head and ejects the pilot, removing both 'mech and MechWarrior from the mission. While expensive to fix, it is usually less expensive than losing a valued MechWarrior or permanently ruining a valuable 'mech's equipment by having its other limbs blown off.

Ejection Seat / int_e89f120b	comment	Mobile Suit Gundam had the Core Fighter, a small aerospace fighter that makes up the cockpit of the Federation's Super Prototypes. The concept returns in a few series, but in some cases (particularly the Victory Gundam and Impulse Gundam) it seems to have been implemented mainly to allow for transformation and replacement of damaged parts rather than as an escape vehicle. The 08th Ms Team depicts a more traditional ejection seat. Zeta Gundam does introduce an escape pod which is the spherical cockpit of the mech, however very few people are saved by this system. The original Gundam's Core Fighter subverts this, since its main purpose is to preserve the Gundam's learning computer and its compiled combat data, with letting the pilot escape alive being a side-benefit. Gundam SEED meanwhile gives ZAFT pilots fightpacks to save themselves with in the event of their suit being disabled (or set to self-destruct), but they have to open the cockpit and jump out manually, so it's not nearly effective. Earth Federations pilots on the other hand get nothing.

Ejection Seat / int_eee45be2	comment	During the tutorial mission in Ace Combat: Assault Horizon, a QTE requires you to punch certain buttons to after your craft is hit. Failure to do so will end in a Game Over. Of course, successfully ejecting still results in the plane that shot you down turning around and ramming into you, at which point it turns out to be a dream.

Ejection Seat / int_ef407eb4	comment	Speed Racer has an ejection mechanism that fills the cockpit with foam and then ejects the foam ball with the pilot inside. This allows them to survive such events as crashing into pillars at 300 kph or falling off a track at skyscraper height. They did this to justify the heroes sideswiping cars off cliffs in a kid-friendly movie, not to mention make the whole sport more believable. This didn't save Rex Racer when his "Quick Save" system failed to deploy in a wreck. One of many reasons that his death was considered highly suspicious.
