Next Level Submarines That Will Blow Your Mind

[Music] Triton 36,2 this submersible costs 48 million of course the price is staggering but this isn't just a spear for circling reefs it's a highly Advanced deep sea vessel the hole is made from titanium and is 3 and 1/2 in thick according to the company it was made using Advanced forging techniques without any welds or similar weak spots the company also conducted tests showing the hole can withstand pressure up to 20,35 psi based on this it's clear that the submersible which can hold two people ensures their complete safety weighing 11.7 tons this submersible runs on a 64 KW electrical system it's life EP batteries power the life support system a manipulator 10 electric thrusters four wide angle cameras and 10 LED lights producing 20,000 lumens in emergencies the life support can last 96 hours allowing the crew to survive to surface it can shed its batteries thrusters robotic arm and ballast which helps achieve positive buoyancy it's worth noting that this unique vessel for deep water enthusiasts actually cost less than 48 million the reason for the high price tag is the extra equipment that comes with it a 220 3T support ship and three unmanned Landers so you're not just getting a submersible but a small [Music] Fleet self-propelled shark cage you've probably heard about cages that protect against sharks interestingly they also have a connection with submarines some really ingenious people have even created mobile versions of these cages making a portable shark cage is simple enough you need to get a bunch of metal rods and join them so the spaces are narrower than the Sharks you're trying to keep out it's essential to use a metal that can hold up against the sharp teeth of aggressive Predators besides that the cage can be equipped with various other elements depending on what you need for instance oxygen tanks can be very useful since the floating cage doesn't provide an Air Supply the important thing to remember is that this quirky underwater vessel needs to move not just stand still loaded with tons of gear while a powerful engine could be used designers typically choose less powerful options this means the cage moves slowly but it does so with great [Music] [Music] stability here's a way to make your experience in such an enclosure even more Unforgettable make it transparent this way the sharks are bound to take more notice of you you're in for a ton of emotions and stunning shots Echo submarines Boeing's a great case of a company willing to try new things they even took a Plunge Into the Depths by creating three autonomous submarines called the echo series the first submarine Ranger measures 18 ft long and can dive as deep as 10,000 ft its main job is autonomous data gathering for military research or any other purposes equipped with Radars sensors and more this unman craft collects all the necessary information underwater however Boeing wasn't satisfied with Ranger so they decided to develop a more advanced vessel this is how Seeker the new underwater explorer came to be it's even bigger than its predecessor stretching out to a whopping 32 ft long plus it's equipped with fancier gear now it's got an acoustic system that can gather data no matter the water conditions temperature time of day or how far away the target is they also tinkered with its design so it can dive down to 20,000 ft deep but even that wasn't enough for Boe Voyager the newest submers ible so far has grown even larger with a length of 52 ft this expansion allowed the company to pack more useful equipment in it making the submersible the top choice for underwater exploration in both Military and Commercial Fields Ghost Shark the most advanced underwater vessels are developed for military purposes and you're seeing the proof on your screen right now the ghost shark is a top-notch reconnaissance drone that can dive to depths of up to 20,000 ft and stay submerged for 10day straight without needing a refill or maintenance it's like the Ultimate Spy that can lurk unseen and pop up unexpectedly in the most surprising places the ghost shark's reconnaissance abilities are partly due to its compact size although its exact dimensions aren't disclosed by its creators judging from videos and photos it's noticeably smaller than a typical submarine ander's team managed to keep the Drone relatively small mainly because it doesn't require a sealed hole soundproofing or life support systems you might have noticed there isn't a ton of detailed info about the ship but there are actual photos and videos of the Ghost Shark so there's a decent chance the Drone could still be useful to the [Music] military Shadow seal this diving vehicle can become a game changer for any military just look at how the shadow seal effortlessly shifts from above to below water becoming a submarine in a Flash it's a perfect fit for reconnaissance teams of up to four members and other strike units needing Swift precise strikes though calling them Swift strikes might be a stretch on the Water The Shadow seal moves at 5 mph but in semi submerged mode that slows down to 5 mph and when fully submerged it slows down even more making it more suitable for accurate strikes rather than high-speed ones this downside makes sense considering the substantial size of the vessel submarine is 6 ft wide 26 ft long and weighs 2 tons moreover being fully electric it lacks the power for greater speed nonetheless this comes with a benefit operations utilizing the shadow seal are exceptionally stealthy and silent but there's a trade-off its missions need to be relatively short it can run for about 20 hours before needing a recharge or cover a distance of approximately 92 MI [Music] dragon is that a sports car floating underwater or is it just a prop for a sci-fi movie those are good guesses but in reality it's a submarine and its standout feature easy handling regular submarines are like a maze of buttons levers and switches requiring training to operate deep flight claims that with the Dragon controlling it so simple that no training is needed this is largely thanks to the dive manager system which handles important functions automatically eliminating the need for a professional pilot it's a great feature and a significant advantage over other submarines isn't it but of course there's more to it than just that this vessel isn't just easy to handle it's also very simple to store unlike its counterparts it weighs in at 1.8 tons and stands at just 5 ft tall that's why the dragon comfortably fits into a yacht garage or on Deck also the company is made Dragon the only personal submarine with enough power to rely solely on vertical thrust during submersion this eliminates the complexity of ballast systems and dropping weights which are used by all similar [Music] submarines Yellow Submarine even though this submarine might look like a prop made to grab attention or for other purposes it's totally legit and can actually Cruise underwater and it does it so smoothly that they offer tours around the Waters of Lanzarote Island aboard it the submarine can Cruise both on the water surface and dive down to depths of up to 100 ft to give passengers a clear view of their surroundings it's fitted with panoramic windows and screens inside this sub comfort's definitely not the top priority with seats that don't even have back rests still it's enough for an hourlong dive in incredibly beautiful Waters MK 1C you're looking at a modern vessel from Ortega submersibles that's perfect for cruising on water it fits three people comfortably and can zip along at a max speed of 10 mph with a range of just 87 Mi it's not built for long hauls but it'll do the job for a short trip at first glance it seems like an ordinary boat but then it suddenly ly starts to submerge surprisingly it can travel faster underwater at 13 mph it can dive down to 312 ft which is perfect for its design tasks whether it's biological studies military missions or other activities this all-around vessel makes switching between surface and underwater operations smooth and efficient perfect for research missions this submersible comes equipped with magnetometers sonar and infrared cameras as well as a navigation system with multiple indicators it also features a convenient storage compartment that can hold 66 Gall plus the boat comes with its own oxygen supply system this means that traveling on an Ortega submersible watercraft is very convenient since you don't have to worry about figuring out how to get air on your [Music] own great white this submarine was originally built in the 1960s but eventually fell into almost total disrepair turning into a pile of metal however when it came into the hands of these skilled Folks at the nonprofit undersea Voyager project it got a new lease on life they managed to fully restore it to a seaworthy state doing all the work in a rather DIY environment which is quite commendable the unique renovation turned out to be topnotch besides updating the hole installing new electronics communication systems and scientific equipment the submarine now has enough air about 2240 G bance to support life for 72 hours the undersea Voyager project intends to use the submarine to help divers sharing air with them if required Additionally the vehicle is equipped with powerful engines that push the submarine forward at 5 mph while the exact range is still unknown we know it can definitely cover 30 Mi the original plan for Great White was to support divers in multiple tasks but now it might be replaced by a vehicle that's only 10% of its size undersea Voyager project is working on this and given the teams dedication it's highly likely to come to fruition it's not just companies that are refurbishing old submarines take Shanny stopnitzky for example she's made it her mission to spend as much time as possible beneath the ocean's surface and she's pretty good at it using submarines she's restored herself they might not look great but they work like a arm and that's truly impressive seab breacher X we're looking at a boat owned by someone who clearly knows how to have a good time and they definitely know how to stand out from the crowd it doesn't matter what other boats look like the seab breacher X resembles a shark or an orca either way it's bold and really unique and yeah it's not just the shape of the boat that surprises riding on it you literally feel like a sea Predator cruising not just on the surface but also diving underwater and then been bursting out to Heights of up to 12 ft and all of this at a speed of 50 mph powered by a turbocharged engine cranking out 260 horsepower but you don't need me to tell you how awesome and fast that is just check out the screens as the C Breer X pulls off another stunt Another Thing Worth praising the creators for is the way you steer the metal sharp you control it using the side and tail fans along with the motor Vector thrust it's kind of like riding a personal watercraft but with a unique feature with the fins you can even a spiraling barrel roll it's totally in line with the shark theme and it works like a charm sadly they only made 10 of these boats each priced at over [Music] $93,000 deep sea Challenger it's widely known that James Cameron ventured solo to the depths of the Mariana Trench he managed to pull off this daring Adventure thanks to a submersible developing the deep sea Challenger took Cameron a solid 8 years this underwater craft had an unusual vertically configured design standing at 24 ft tall and weighing 11.8 tons the deep sea Challenger surprisingly used very little off the-shelf equipment its creators went all out and crafted a genuine technical Marvel requiring around 1,500 individual circuit boards they also developed a unique life support system that maintains normal conditions for one passenger and a spear with an interior diameter of about 43 in the Pilot's cabin has steel walls that are about 2 1/2 in thick and behind them are a bunch of switches and gadgets there are two tanks of compressed oxygen and a CO2 scrubber that help keep the pilot breathing for about 56 hours all in all there are 180 different systems inside the submersible including four cameras on the outside yeah everything went smoothly just as planned James Cameron successfully completed his dive without any issues so now it's not just the dire who gets the credit but also his trusty submarine that made it all possible cagen submarines the tasks performed by seamagine submarines are pretty straightforward just take a look at the cabin where people sit it's a feature in all the company submarines giving a full 360° view depending on the version or sub Marine can accommodate anywhere from 1 to 9 people and dive to depths of up to 6 Mi passengers can stay at such depths for up to 14 hours which is how long fully charged lithium ion batteries used in underwater Vehicles last surprisingly these batteries fully charge in Just 2 hours so there's no need for long breaks between extended underwater tours you've likely realized that c mein's main focus for their submarines as tourism but there's more to it than just that these Subs can be decked out with a wide range of equipment from cameras and sonars to robotic arms and imaging tools and there's extra room in the rear for fitting in various research tools it's not just about having fun or taking in the sights it's also perfect for scientific purposes [Music]
