In this work, we present calculations of the angular distribution of the products of the dissociation of water molecules when bombarded with He$^{q+}$ for projectile energies between 1 and 5 keV. Here $q=0,1,2$ is the charge of the incoming ion. Our theoretical results are based on the Electron-Nuclear Dynamics formalism (END)\footnote{ E. Deumens, A. Diz, R. Longo, and Y. {\"O}hrn, Rev. Mod. Phys. {\bf 66}, 917 (1994).} We present results for the dissociation cross section, charge transfer cross section, the stopping cross section (nuclear and electronic) for the projectiles, and the angular distribution of He$^{q+}$, H, OH, and O.
