 Elite Navy SEALs reveal secretive minisub test

America’s secretive Navy SEAL commando unit, one of the most capable Special Forces units in the world, has revealed it is doing a special minisub test off the coast of Hawaii.

US Special Operations Command announced it will attempt to launch and recover a new Mark 11 minisub from a Virginia-class submarine — as the elite force retools some of its undersea assets, William Cole of The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported.

Two of the 22-foot SEAL Delivery Vehicle Mark 11s already were delivered to Hawaii for fleet familiarization and two more were undergoing government acceptance, said Capt. Kate Dolloff, Special Operations Command’s maritime program executive officer. At least ten are to be built, she added.
