Abstract (en)
A torpedo (1) having: a main body (2); a wire (3) having a first portion (15), which forms a coil (13) secured to the main body (2), and a second portion (16) securable to a launch tube; a connector (21); and a variable-length tubular member (24) housing the second portion (16); the tubular member (24) is connected to the main body (2) by a yieldable connection (86,87;88), and is connectable to the launch tube; the tubular member (24) increases in length when the main body (2) withdraws from the launch tube, and decreases in length when the connection (86,87;88) yields; retaining means (22) maintains the connector (21) and the tubular member (24) in a predetermined position, when a force lower than a threshold value acts on connector (21) or tubular member (24), and allows relative movement between the two with a higher force.
