Summary

[edit]
Description
English: 330-PS-9056 (USN 710204): Close-up view of the Rocket Assist Torpedo (RAT) launching system installed on board USS De Haven (DD 727). An added weapon to the anti-submarine warfare forces, the rocket assist torpedo weapon system consists of a rocket propelled anti-submarine torpedo 13 ½ feet in length and weighing 450 pounds. The missile is propelled through the air by a powerful rocket. The spent rocket drops away and the torpedo continues on its way. It deploys a parachute which stabilizes its flight and carries it down to the water. On entering the water, the torpedo releases the parachute, sheds its nose cap, and starts to search for and attack the submarine, July 25, 1958. (11/18/2014).
