The engineers at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) are working on an aircraft that’s capable of landing on the water and submerging beneath the waves.
DARPA hopes to design a vehicle able to hold 8 people with a flying radius of 1000 nautical miles and a submersible range of 12 nautical miles. The vehicle will not have deep diving abilities but rather snorkel just under the surface.
Adventurer Steve Fossett had developed a test vehicle similar to the DARPA Submersible Aircraft.
