RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Seahorse news
Seems there is allot of dislike of the U.S. Navy.
However speaking off the record, it is very doubtful that any kind of sub
surface vessel could be used effectively against a US Carrier, due to
several reasons...most of which should be common sense...and some which will
not be spoken.
Regardless of no prop to move the vessel, if moving, it will be detected by
sonar, regardless of means or propulsion, just like any other object in the
ocean.

Dubai is one of the safest place in the world to live.
Just not forget that the vehicle mostly used by terrorist is a car, toyota
or
mitsubishi. The last concern of designers (car, plane , boat) and now
submarines is to the least criminal use of their designs.
Criminals have endless possibilities from toaster to people to plant bombs
so i
am not going refrain myself against innovation because of criminals.
What is criminal is to not let ourself prepared against such attacks, i
designed
a submarine specially to prevent underwater attacks which has not received
any
interest from the all powerfull US Navy. so i did my duty and i am not going
to
open a bakery instead of selling subs because somebody, someday might use a
sub
to blow up something.
however Al quaida reportedly already has acquired mini subs, which i know
are
not from me.
My scubajet is a breakthrough in scuba diving, it is a low profile light
diver
propulsion vehicle in a ergonomic backpack including a BC with no hoses or
consoles sticking out (HUB), you control propulsion with a bite switch in
your
mouth piece which
makes it hands free. optional is a small LCD mask screen to display info,
depth, speed, air capacity.
There is no props, it is true that if used with a rebreather it is difficult
to
detect, remember that most diver detectors are passive, listening to noises
under the water, but rather ineffective anyways in a port because of heavy
activity generating noises, active sonars to detect divers are also rather
ineffective is such shallow water.

Herve
