Abstract
924,022. Torpedoes. UNITED AIRCRAFT CORPORATION. May 10, 1961 [May 10, 1960], No. 17058/61. Class 9 (2). [Also in Group XXXIII] An underwater vehicle is provided with a forwardly convergent body 26 disposed forwardly of its leading edge, which forms a gaseous envelope 22 around the vehicle to reduce friction drag. In the embodiment described, the conical-shaped body is formed from flaps 36 whose position with respect to the axis of the vehicle can be altered by jacks 52 to change the form of the envelope 22. The body is supported on a shaft 38 so that it can also be moved towards or away from the vehicle by a motor 44. The vehicle may be propelled by a propeller or reaction jets. Control surfaces 14, 16 and 18 may be provided.
