The US Navy has revealed a new underwater drone called Manta Ray, made by Northrop Grumman for DARPA. Shaped like the sea creature, it can travel over 6,200 miles without surfacing or human control.

The drone moves quietly using buoyancy and propellers, and can “hibernate” on the ocean floor to save energy and avoid detection. It’s built in parts, making it easy to ship and assemble anywhere.

Manta Ray has space for sensors and mission gear, and passed months of sea tests in early 2024.

The Navy sees it as a big step in underwater missions, as rivals like China and Russia build similar tech.
