In world war II uboats had an Focke-Achgelis designed an autogiro for use as an aerial spotting device in the Second World War. The Fa 330 was a small autogiro which could be stored on board German U-boats. When it was required for service, the blades were re-attached and the autogiro was towed behind the U-boat. The pilot was able to communicate with the U-boat by means of a telephone line running along-side the towing wire.
