The airboat is propelled by a column of air generated by a propeller, with wind speed generated up to 150 miles per hour (241 km/h). Rudders attached to a control stick divert the air to steer. Airboats generally travel at speeds of around 35 miles per hour (30 kn; 55 km/h); modified craft can reach 135 miles per hour (115 kn; 215 km/h). [6]
Air-independent propulsion (AIP), or air-independent power, is any marine propulsion technology that allows a non-nuclear submarine to operate without access to atmospheric oxygen (by surfacing or using a snorkel). AIP can augment or replace the diesel-electric propulsion system of non-nuclear vessels.

Compressed air is injected into the pipe in one to three second bursts with an interval long enough to let the resulting bubble to rise to the higher, output end of the pipe. The bubble moves water through the pipe sucking debris from the lower end and depositing it from the upper end of the pipe.
