The CRACUNS can hide in waiting at the bottom of the sea, ready to strike at a moment's notice.
CRACUNS is the James
Bond-esque spy drone of the future, a waterproof UAV that can survive
two months in briny water intact. While fully submergible, CRACUNS
can rise from the depths and take to the air.
The
vehicle, which carries the full name Corrosion Resistant Aerial Covert
Unmanned Nautical System, is intended to be placed outside
submarines where it can be deployed to the sea floor, lying in waiting
for two months with a suite of surveillance gear. When it needs to be
retrieved, it can re-surface and make its way back to the ship.
CRACUNS
was built by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory,
the same lab that built the New Horizons Pluto probe for NASA. The
instrument payload is kept in a submergible container inside the drone
body, while the exterior drone is protected by off-the-shelf parts,
driving down the cost.
