Bluefin UUV Dives Under The Ice at U.S. Navy Exercise
During a U.S. Navy Exercise, MIT students and General Dynamics engineers deployed a modified Bluefin-21 unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) designed to carry a number of deep sea exploration sensor packages. The five-week exercise was used to research operational capabilities in the Arctic region and test the modified Bluefin-21 in extreme conditions under the ice.
