An unmanned underwater vehicle may comprise a remotely operated underwater vehicle and an autonomously operating underwater vehicle. The unmanned underwater vehicle may also comprise a first connection to the remotely operated underwater vehicle. The first connection may serve to exchange data. The unmanned underwater vehicle may additionally comprise a second connection to the remotely operated underwater vehicle. The second connection may serve to supply energy. The unmanned underwater vehicle may still further include a third connection to the autonomously operating underwater vehicle, which third connection serves to exchange data. A method for executing remotely controlled underwater works may involve dispatching such an unmanned underwater vehicle, decoupling and moving the autonomously operating underwater vehicle, establishing a connection between a first interface of the autonomously operating underwater vehicle and a second interface, setting up a data connection between a control center and the remotely operated underwater vehicle, and executing the underwater works.
