Abstract

A submarine escape assembly comprises a waterproof suit (10) to which is integrally attached a container (20) for a deployable liferaft. The liferaft has its own inflation source which is actuated by means of a handle (21) on the container (20). The suit (10) includes an inflatable buoyancy stole (11) which is inflated through a valve (18) from the submarine's inflation source. An integral cord or lanyard is used to attach the liferaft to the container (20).
