Underwater vehicle (20) for destroying naval mines. The underwater vehicle has a shaped charge (22) comprising a cone (24), explosive (26) and a first and a second detonator (28, 30), wherein the explosive (26) is arranged around a lateral surface (32) of the cone, the first detonator (28) is arranged at a tapered end of the cone and the second detonator (30) is arranged at a distance from the first detonator (28). The underwater vehicle also comprises a) a control unit (34) which is designed for optionally activating the first detonator (28), in order to detonate the explosive (26) at the tapered end of the cone and to obtain a directional explosion, or activating the second detonator (30), in order to detonate the explosive (26) at the point at which the second detonator (30) is arranged, or b) a control unit (34) which is designed for activating the second detonator (30), in order to detonate the explosive (26) at the point at which the second detonator (30) is arranged, wherein the first detonator (28) is designed to detonate in the event of impact of the underwater vehicle (20), in order to detonate the explosive (26) at the tapered end of the cone and to obtain a directional explosion.
