Aqua Scooters

The Aqua Scooters are small one-man underwater craft used for extra-vehicular excursions from the Condor (see above, Condor) while in HydroScram mode.  The ship contains 4 Aqua Scooters along with accompanying electric thermodynamic wetsuits which are capable of maintaining an internal temperature of 83 degrees without any signature heat leakage   Each aqua scooter possesses its own internal breathing gas supply to provide the pilot with “on-the-fly” mixes of air, nitrox, heliox, trimix or liquid flurocarbon to enable underwater respiration and decompression.  A uranium trioxide battery powers the ship’s primary functions while propulsion is driven compressed hydrogen gas turbine enabling silent running for over 3 hours.  The small craft contains no armament and can travel to maximum speed of 45 mph.  The Aqua Scooters are not intended for operation below 660 feet.
