A ready to fly C.O.T.S. surveillance drone, packed inside a specialized waterproof pressure resistant container, is launched from a submarine to the ocean surface where it can then fly away to its pregrogrammed mission destination. The specialized cyldrical container fits within the submarine’
Shortest routes in space:
It must be noted that in study of the properties of “space,” we also are including all possible locations that objects can occupy in the universe (ref.1).
I mean that, we are a part of the system that we want to study,
GoldDrive:
“GoldDrive” is an infinitely variable, bi-directional drive consisting of hydraulic fixed displacement pumps and motors. As a matter of fact “GoldDrive” is the hydraulic equivalent of the mechanical differential. The idea behind the development of “GoldDrive” is to overcome the limitation of starting torque.

EMP suction rounds are designed as cylindrically shaped pods that utilize suction adhesion and electromagnetic energy pulse/wavelengths range "short." EMP suction rounds are primarily designed to suction lock to law-breaking criminalized vehicles rendering the vehicle unresponsive, halting further violations if pursuit by law enforcement is required.
