[PSUBS-MAILIST] FYI : NUWC Patents
Check these out.
I know all of us have been looking far and wide for that off-the-shelf
"Muzzle Brake for an Underwater Gun" especially for that pSubs'
Convention wargames "Run Silent Run Cheap" competition. [ or
is that next year : -) ] Look no more...here it is! And, I know I
want the "Superconducting Electromagnetic Torpedo Launcher"
add-on to my Aquasub.
' Kidding aside, these may be worth contemplating for ideas. Some
of the drawings are a bit sketchy [ no pun intended ] , but some are
detailed enough to give some thought to.
The files are small, from 50+Kb to 100+Kb in PDF format. They're
in standard 2 page USPTO document-drawing format.
Here is the link and long list.
