Soft cover. Zustand: New. This guide comprehensively explores workflows for modern torpedo design, bridging theoretical principles with practical application. It offers a structured approach integrating engineering practices with technical data, making it highly useful for professionals, researchers and students. Key topics include hydrodynamic configuration, sensor design, power requirements, stability, and control mechanisms. The book covers critical aspects such as shell design, material selection, onboard computing, monitoring, safety measures, and considerations for both exercise and combat torpedoes. Deployment strategies for aerial launches from helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft are discussed, emphasizing safety and compatibility certification. The guide also examines launchers, fire control computers, and rigorous testing protocols to ensure reliability and operational readiness. It reflects the development cycle, from conceptual design to validation, adhering to a systematic engineering process. Designed with a systems engineering perspective, it offers cross-disciplinary insights, building foundational expertise for designing and developing underwater weapon systems. It serves students, engineers, defence personnel, researchers, and scientists, equipping readers to contribute meaningfully to underwater weaponry.
