AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing ferry crossing methods are inefficient due to the inability to hide the ferry during its movement to the loading site, which poses a security risk in combat conditions.
Method used
A submersible pontoon ferry with an air cushion and remote-controlled air compressor and electric drive mechanisms allows the ferry to be submerged and concealed during transit, using an air cushion to displace water and a propeller for underwater movement.
Benefits of technology
Enhances the efficiency and safety of ferry crossings by enabling concealment during transit, improving security and operational efficiency.

Abstract
FIELD: stream crossing.SUBSTANCE: methods for guiding a ferry crossing. To guide a ferry crossing, the ferry is unloaded into the water and moved to the loading area for the equipment. A submersible pontoon ferry is used. It contains pontoon links consisting of half-pontoons, connected by a hinge, in the internal cavity of the semi-pontoon an air bag made of elastic material is installed. On the side of the semi-pontoon there is a niche in which a waterproof container is installed, inside which an air compressor is installed, connected by an air pipe to the air bag through openings in the semi-pontoon and the container. The air compressor creates air pressure in the air bag, sufficient to displace water from the semi-pontoon by expanding the air bag, and is remotely controlled via a portable software tool. A telescopic pipe for collecting atmospheric air is installed in the container, where in the lower stern part in the center of the link in the semi-pontoons there are recesses in which a container with an electric motor is installed, which is remotely controlled through a portable software tool and which is connected to the propeller with the ability to rotate it. Holes are made on the bottom and ends of the semi-pontoon.EFFECT: performance of ferry crossing guidance is increased by providing the ability to hide the ferry in the visible range during its movement to the loading site.1 cl
