An 8-man swimmer delivery vehicle, Carrier Seal is designed for the covert insertion and extraction of combat diver units.

Carrier Seal operates in three modes; surface, semi-submerged and submerged. Launched from a surface ship, Carrier Seal vehicles transit at speeds of up to 30kts on the surface before switching to submerged mode for a covert final approach. 

Speed Is the essence of War. Exploit the enemy’s unpreparedness; Attack him unawares; Take an unexpected route.
