Flimmer, the Flying, Swimming UAV

Flimmer: The Naval Research Lab’s Underwater Unmanned Vehicle

This flying-swimming Flimmer is under development at the Naval Research Laboratory as a combination UAV and UUV.  The goal is to improve tactical availability of UUVs in time-critical situations. Another goal is to be able to gather data in hard-to-reach locations. This video shows how it works and what it potentially will be able to do.
