 Structure : Rectangular-shaped tuhular aluminum alloy (HE 130 ) encloses 

 and supports all components. 



Buoyancy : Syntactic foam blocks provide positive buoyancy. 

 Pover Requirements : 380/^+15/^^+0 V 5O/6O Hz 3-phase 125 KVA (to control 

 cabin transformer) 



Propulsion : Four fixed, reversible, electric thrusters with Kort 

 nozzles each of 12.5 hp. A TV camera is moiinted on a rotating platform 

 stabilized in azimuth relative to rest of vehicle, the controls are 

 arranged such that the vehicle will travel in the compass bearing in 

 which the operator points the camera.

 power loss to the vehicle, a self-powered transponder and flashing light 

 is activated. Nine, 1,000 watt quartz iodide lights. 

 Navigation : Visual sighting and magnetic compass. Vehicle space 

 and electrical connectors are available to accommodate any of the 

 conventional bottom-moionted or surface-tracking navigation systems.

 15 ft x 18. i+ ft (l+.6m X 5-6m) for vehicle; 20 ft x 6.5 ft (6m x 2m) 

 for cable handling device. Derrick or crane capable of lifting 

 vehicle with an outreach of 6.5 ft (2m) from the support craft. 

 Two cabins, each I9.7 ft x 8 ft x 8.5 ft (6m x 2.1+m x 2.6m). Station 

 keeping requirements dependent upon depth of vehicle and strength of 

 current.
