A flexible hose wire payout system is provided to protect guidance wires during the launch and guidance phases of wire-guided torpedoes. The entire flexible hose system is mounted in the torpedo tube so that when the torpedo is launched the hose is deployed and breaks away when it is entirely dispensed. After breaking away, the free end of the hose sinks to and remains at a position below the submarine, allowing the guidance wire thereafter to be dispensed through the hose and permitting considerably increased submarine maneuvering.
