Hydrofoil Steering

Banking turns of up to 30° for agile, exhilarating underwater handling.

360° Acrylic Hull

Full panoramic visibility, even at speed.

Wide-Angle Sonar

130° field of view with 100 m range for safe high-speed navigation.

96-Hour Life Support

Overview

Super Sub pairs U-Boat Worx's signature 360° acrylic hull with a hydrodynamic profile and 25 kW thrusters, reaching speeds of up to 10 knots underwater — more than three times faster than any other manned submersible in its class.

Hydrofoil-assisted steering allows banking turns of up to 30°, controlled through the new SHARC controller for fast, intuitive maneuvering at speed.

Despite the performance focus, Super Sub keeps the comforts U-Boat Worx is known for: air conditioning, Bluetooth audio, and 96-hour emergency life support.

Safety Systems

  • Maximum Depth Protection — automatic ascent if certified limits are exceeded
  • Deadman's Switch — automatic resurfacing if the pilot is incapacitated
  • 96-hour emergency life support as standard
  • Manually releasable emergency drop weight
  • Acoustic pinger for underwater location tracking
  • DNV certified design, construction and testing
