The Subsea Light Vehicle (SLV) named MURENE is the latest generation of diver propulsion device. It has been designed to provide the best ergonomics, protection and performances for 2 combat divers fully equipped. MURENE can be deployed from shore, from a rigid inflatable boat or from a submarine through a torpedo tube (NATO Std 21”). The SLV MURENE is fitted with a cutting edge Inertial Navigation System coupled to a Doppler Velocity Log and a GPS. Its small dimension, its greater ease of use, and intuitive piloting, make it a perfect device to sneak up on maritime targets. The full version, fitted with a Forward Looking Multi-Beam Sonar, is able to carry out seabed monitoring before an amphibious operation. Designed on the basis of a strong cooperation with combat divers, it is fully built and patented by ALSEAMAR.
