A compact, recreational two-man minisub designed for deployment from moonpools or other parent vehicles, can also be used as a lifeboat. Ease of use and modest range also makes it useful for exploration, although it has no complex navigation systems installed and comes with only the necessary display functions. It may be adapted for reconnaissance and military roles in the future.


Controlling the submarine is very simple, just flip the master power switch and use A/D to steer, W/S to set depth and hotkeys 1, 2 and 3 to throttle up, down or stop. Unpowered depth control is possible up to 30m, ballast tanks will neutralise buoyancy below 30m, in which case hydroplanes is used to change depth. Ballast tank pumps will work up to 50m depth.

Diving too fast from 30m past 50m may overwhelm the ballast pumps before they can neutralise buoyancy. The cabin can also be flooded if the submarine is settled on the seafloor above 50m depth, water will be pumped out when sealed.


Full physics detail may be required for the submarine to work properly, you can set this in the game options.
