US Develops Underwater Drone “Manta Ray” for Exploration, Research, and Surveillance in Unreachable Ocean Depths
America has created an unmanned drone that can go even where humans cannot go in the ocean. It can do exploration, research, or spying by diving under the sea for a long time. In the future, it can also be used as a weapon.
America has created a vehicle that will go under the sea. Where humans cannot even go. This is a kind of unmanned underwater drone. Which can stay inside the sea for a long time. It can be used in tasks like underwater exploration, research, and espionage.
In the future, it can also be used as a weapon. Its design has been made by DARPA. That is the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. It was made by Northrop Grumman Company. Its design has been taken from the giant sea fish Manta Ray.
By putting many types of payloads in it, it can be sent on different types of missions. It is completely autonomous. Manta Ray Underwater Vehicles can dive to great depths inside the sea at their own pace. Will hibernate when energy is low so that energy can be used properly.
It is modular, so it can be dismantled and taken anywhere. Later it can be reassembled and put to work. At present, Northrop Grumman Company has prepared a full-size unmanned model of it. It has been designed in such a way that it will keep diving silently inside the sea for a long time.
Its body has been made from such material which can withstand heavy pressure in the depths of the sea. It should not rust, nor should it spoil for a long time. It has been placed in the category of Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (UUV). With its help, rescue operations can also be done in the future.
