A decoy deployment and retrieval system includes an extensible boom (40) and corresponding cradle or saddle (42) for use in the retrieval of the towed decoy (32) such that, upon retrieval, the extensible boom (40) with its decoy (32) captured in the cradle (42) is retracted into a chamber (34) so that the decoy (32) can be deployed over and over again. In one embodiment, the decoy is both towed by, and controlled over, a fiber optic line in which a load cell is used to detect tension on the line to prevent damage, and a fiber optic rotary joint is utilized along with high voltage slip rings to permit electrical and optical coupling without backlash, fouling or damage to the line.

L'invention concerne un système de déploiement et de récupération de leurre, comprenant un bras extensible et un berceau ou sabot correspondant conçus pour être utilisés pour récupérer le leurre remorqué, de telle sorte que lors de la récupération, le bras extensible et le leurre enfermé dans le berceau est rétracté dans une enceinte afin que le leurre puisse être déployé ultérieurement. Dans un mode de réalisation, le leurre est à la fois remorqué et commandé par une ligne de fibre optique dans laquelle une cellule de mesure est utilisée pour détecter la tension sur la ligne de manière à empêcher une détérioration. Un joint tournant à fibre optique est utilisé conjointement avec des bagues collectrices haute tension afin de permettre le couplage électrique et optique sans effet inverse, encrassement ou détérioration de la ligne.
