[2] The mission was the final goal for Project Nekton, a series of dives conducted by the United States Navy in the Pacific ...
A deep-submergence vehicle (DSV) is a deep-diving crewed submersible that is self-propelled. [citation needed] Several navies operate vehicles that can be accurately described as DSVs. DSVs are commonly divided into two types: research DSVs, which are used for exploration and surveying, and DSRVs (deep-submergence rescue vehicles), which are ...
