The unmanned flying torpedo designed by Giuseppe Rossi who built and successfully tested this weapon to reach any predetermined distance and at any desired altitude. includes a device for wing destroying bombs which explode after a predetermined travel distance, thus allowing the torpedo to fall quickly on the target.The winged torpedo shell is mounted on a mobile base on casters. Towards the rear is a horizontal rudder which can be adjusted before launching the torpedo, so that any desired altitude can be reached by the whole device. When the torpedo is launched the operator turning a crank can make adjustments to the desired inclinations to the torpedo body, thus adjusting at the same time the thrust angle of the torpedo.
