Chinese Scientists Develop Submarine-Launched Drone with Propellers That Fold in Five Seconds, Capable of Underwater and Aerial Operations
Jan 22, 2025, 01:11 PM
Chinese scientists have developed the world’s first drone capable of launching from a submarine and operating both underwater and in the air. This innovative drone features propellers that fold within five seconds when submerged, reducing resistance, and is equipped with special thrusters that enable it to navigate underwater. The advancements mark a significant leap in drone technology, particularly for military applications, as submarines were previously considered largely immune to such technological developments.
