That was pretty much the image I was going with! I wanted a ship that reeked of
power and do circles around anything else underwater...mostly:)
"Ahnald"? Hm, might have to give the SeaHunter a nickname:)

Yep, you pretty much nailed the SeaFlea's purpose. I wanted something hat could
dropped off or qickly deployed for defense that was everything a manned vehicle
couldn't be: faster, more manueverable, and ultimately, more expendable. These
could be put in places to loiter and attack or report incoming hostiles. And a
group of these could be a an automated patrol for an unmanned installation.
Thanks!
