Unmanned underwater vehicle and device for connecting a fiber optic cable to an unmanned underwater vehicle

摘要

Unmanned underwater vehicles (1), which can be controlled by a fiber optic cable (3) from a carrier platform (2), can be used for a wide variety of missions. When mine action is often a loss of the underwater vehicle (1) accepted, which also destroys the fiber optic cable (3) by a blast. In order to reduce the cost of a mission of the underwater vehicle, it is provided according to the invention to connect the optical waveguide cable (3) to the underwater vehicle (1) via a connection device (4). The connection device (4) comprises a connection cable (8) and connection elements (11, 12) at the ends (9, 10) of the connection cable (8) for an optical waveguide cable (3) on the one hand and for an unmanned underwater vehicle (1) on the other.
