Explore the oceans in submersible
Seven meters long and 2 meters wide, this little submarine is the latest technology on submarine.
The “Super Falcon” is able to descend more than 460 meters deep. Two people can sit on board for exploring the seabed and discover a world of unknown practically everything.

A new tool for scientists?
The first recipient of this technological marvel is the billionaire Tom Perkins. He bought the submersible to accompany his yacht Maltese Falcon. The jet skiing and water skiing are relegated to second place, a place to discover marine species.
Scientists also eyeing on the “Super Falcon”. This device could be used to monitor nature reserves and discovering new marine treasures.
The Deep Flight Challenger: Fastest
Before performing the “Super Falcon”, many prototypes have succeeded with the “Challenger Deep Fight.”
This machine does not welcome init only pilot aboard. It measures 5.4 meters long and 3.7 meters wide. The submarine was able to move at a speed of 3 knots and down to 10.6 meters per second. You read “Deep Flight Challenger” was designed primarily to fire Steve Fossett that he beat the world record down underwater. But he died in a plane crash in 2007 before it a try.

The submarine can accommodate one to two people lying down is for the Seabed Survey.
This marvel will be created as soon as sufficient funds are collected.
Deep Flight I: 20 000 Leagues Under the Sea
Deep Flight I was developed in 1995 to initiate research in great depth. This submarine is a real novelty in terms of design. Instead of using a simple system of ballasts for the descent and ascent, this machine has wings to ensure the negative pressure needed for diving.
Only one person lying down can take place on board

Length: 4 m
Width: 2.4 m
Depth: 1 005 m
Average speed: 12 knots
Lowering speed: 198 m / min
Pulling speed: 146 m / min
Deep Flight I have four cameras, four lights and two front side. This prototype has been used extensively for the design of its successor Deep Flight II.
Wet Flight: the power of film to dry
In 1997, engineers Hawkes Ocean Technologiess (HOT) have designed this small submarine expressly for underwater filming. It can descend to 45 meters deep. The pilot, cameraman does not need to get wet to capture spectacular images of the oceans.
