US tests giant ‘Manta Ray’ drone submarine for long-distance underwater missions
Story by Alexander Butler • 51m •
The US has tested a futuristic “manta-ray” style underwater drone that could one day be used for long-distance missions around the world.
The Manta Ray prototype uncrewed underwater vehicle (UUV) completed full-scale testing off the coast of Southern California over the last three months.
It was funded by the US Department of Defense’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) programme, and built by defence company Northrop Grumman.
Once developed, it will demonstrate a new class of long-range, payload-capable UUV’s ready for operation across seas and oceans, according to Darpa.
