map for the U.S. Boeing unmanned submarines built in 2001 “Echo Ranger”. Boeing is developing the use of the military unmanned submarine submarine technology to detect mines in combat and other military tasks. Boeing recently tested in California, Catalina Island, unmanned submarine.
BEIJING, Aug. 23, “no one submarine revolutionized naval warfare concept of the day not far away.” “Chosun Ilbo” invoke “Los Angeles Times” (LAT) 19 reported that the United States Boeing recently in the United States, California, Catalina Island, tested unmanned submarines. The paper, as in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and other places to change in use of UAVs, like the war mode, if no one is in a real submarine, will open a new chapter in maritime war.
According to reports, so far, no one is mainly used for submarine oil exploration, natural gas, water sound waves to detect. Boeing back in 2001 built the “Echo Ranger” submarine, for those purposes. “Los Angeles Times” reported that Boeing plans to use the submarine technology, the development of military unmanned submarines.
submarine being developed by about 5.5 meters, is a small submarine. The yellow submarine’s maximum speed of up to eight (approximately 15 km), diving depth of 3,000 meters. Boeing plans to load on the remote submarine torpedoes, sailed straight to the ocean floor a few months.
reported that the test is mainly to support the unmanned deep-sea unmanned navigation devices have been tested. And in-flight UAV and satellite communication signals of different, no one in the seabed for submarine operations can not receive satellite signals, requiring more sophisticated than the unmanned aircraft navigation equipment. Unmanned submarines will be totally dependent on pre-programmed navigation.
high hopes for the U.S. Navy for unmanned submarines. Naval Operations Adm. Gary ? Rawhide, said: “No one submarine in the next few years will play a very important role in the heavy fighting and casualties mine detection will play an important role in the field.” He said: “No one submarine will be in operational costs and safety aspects of radical change to the existing technology ‘key to reversing the situation of the war (game-changer )’。”
unmanned submarine is also very low cost. “Los Angeles Times” reported that, at present, a nuclear submarine of the price of more than 2.8 billion U.S. dollars, but no one submarine costs far less than this.
