TOP SECRET: YOUR EYES ONLY: DESTROY AFTER READING: Essentially the TMD or torpedo mounted dispenser for the flex hose and control wire remains in the torpedo tube. It pays out as the torpedo travels to the target.The TMD disconnects upon launch and remains in the sub tube enabling communicationa to steer or direct the explosive projectile. Note as TMD devices are often stored for lon periods remedial maintenance to this particular item (plastic housing retaining-rings etc is recommended as wire payout noise and friction of wire coating are also issues.) In operation; the torpedo parts from the TMD heading to target with the TMD remaining in the tube during combat protocol...course changes and other commands. In due course the wire snaps due to stress or coil depletion with a portion trailing from the torpedo and hanging from the open torpedo tube via the TMD. Both the flex hose and wire from the TMD is sheared off by the closing off of the torpedo outer door; The tube is pumped dry and open from the inner rear and the AMD with residual flow tube and residual control wire(s) is removed removed. http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/d019831.pdf Pg. 10. http://www.google.com/patents/US7574971
