A shock-proof electric marine engine, e.g. an engine or generator, is for a marine (Navy) ship, and includes a stator and a rotor in a housing. The stator and the rotor are connected in such a way that they are rotatably displaceable in a counter direction and in a radial/axial manner with limited slack. The rotor and stator form a displaceable unit in relation to the housing, which can be displaced away from the housing with a higher vibration overshoot range. The housing is elastically connected to the marine (navy) ship. |

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a preventing device of illegal boarding to a ship capable of reliably detecting the approach of pirates and automatically blocking the illegal boarding.
SOLUTION: Handrail covers having a surface shape on which an anchor slips and covering a handrail are fitted removably and continuously on the upper deck of the ship in this preventing device of illegal boarding to the ship. A signal wire cut by the anchor if the anchor is hooked is stretched on the ship inside surface of the handrail covers when the handrail covers are fitted, and an alarm is issued by the cutting of the signal wire.

A system designed as a benign disablement weapon for use against sailboats and a method for using the system. The system may be easily deployed to stop sailboats by disabling the propeller. The system uses a buoyant component that floats covertly on the water surface and to which many entanglement lines are attached. Upon the targeted boat passing over the system, the buoyant interface catches on the keel of the vessel. The buoyant interface then drags the entanglement lines with the vessel which puts the lines in position to catch on the propeller, causing the vessel to become disabled. The system may be modified for use in disabling motor craft. |

A system and method for a large ship to immobilize malicious small watercraft comprises of an unmanned underwater vehicle. The vehicle can be launched immediately upon detection of the threat. When the watercraft comes close, preparing to start boarding attack, the vehicle either uses it's onboard propulsion or is towed with a cable to sneak up on the watercraft and deliver an immobilizing effect, such as a hard crash or a stalling entanglement, on the propulsion mechanism of the watercraft. |

An active automated anti-boarding device for a maritime asset security system includes a housing for mounting the device on a maritime asset. The deterrence device includes visual and sound deterrence emitters within said mount to disperse a directional fan pattern of sight and visual deterrence response outward from the housing to unauthorized boarders. An active automated anti-boarding maritime asset security system includes detection devices configured to mount to maritime asset, the detection devices each including emitters and receivers for generating and detection beams that form a virtual fence to form a detection network on a portion or around an entire maritime asset. Deterrence devices responsive to the interruption of the spaced apart detection beams produce a deterrent response that is non lethal. The deterrence response can be a law enforcement level of deterrence, it can induce discomfort and/or disorientation to deter unauthorized boarders. The deterrence response can be strong enough to cause physical pain in an authorized boarder. |

The invention relates to a barrier made of barbed wire, wherein said barbed wire can be compressed, in the manner of a helix, in a first direction (A) and can be pulled apart in a second, opposite direction (B). In addition, the device (100) has a guiding element, in particular a tensioning cable (120), which extends in the first and second directions (A, B) and which is designed to guide the motion of the lid-shaped element (115) and/or of the barbed wire (101) away from the container (110) in the second direction (B) and toward the container in the opposite direction. Said design makes it possible to safely store the barbed wire in the compressed state (the lid sits on the container). At the same time, said design makes it possible to route the barbed wire manageably and safely when the barbed wire is pulled out in a guided manner in order to construct a barrier. The tensioning cable (120) can have a tensioning element (121), in particular a mechanically, pneumatically, or hydraulically operated tensioning element. The device (100) can additionally have one or more defense wires, in particular current-carrying alarm wires and/or wires carrying high voltage. The tensioning cable (120) also can be designed to carry current and can form an electrical defense system and/or alarm system together with the defense wires. |

A marine gate includes a gate member submersible in a body of water. At least a first post and a second post support the gate member. The gate member is slidably secured on the first and second posts so that the gate member is movable between first and second locations above and below the waterline. The marine gate includes a winch, a cable extending from the winch to the gate member, and an optic fiber net attached at least to the gate member and extending to the sea floor, thereby establishing an underwater fence. Operation of the winch alters a length of the cable, thereby permitting the gate member to be raised to a closed position and to be lowered to an opened position such that a vessel may pass through the gate when the gate member is in the opened position. |
