ABSTRACT:
An acoustic decoy round ejected by a launcher for flight above water from a ea-going vessel, impacts at the water surface to cause separation of a payload from a forward section of the round that is also separated from a flotation anchor tethered to the payload and fins which stabilized launched flight of the round prior to impact. The separated payload submerges from the flotation anchor at the water surface location to a tethered depth within the water from which a decoy signal is emitted.
