Underwater weapon systems.

摘要

An underwater weapon system comprises an elongate outer container (12) which is buried or partially buried in the sea bed in an upright position using self-burying means (20, 21, 22) which are at the bottom end of the container (12) and which preferably comprise both pump means (20, 22) for removing sand or silt and rotary material displacing means (21), e.g. an auger for boring a hole in the sea bed or rotary stirring means. The weapon (10) is a self-propelled device with guidance means and is housed within an inner container (11) which is telescopically arranged within the outer container (12).
