The MAET is an underwater escape trainer with a generic fuselage section representing specific aircraft / amphibious vessels cockpit and cabin emergency escape exits. The MAET dunker functions closely to the general characteristics of a ditched aircraft; in this case either the CH-46 or CH-53 and can be reconfigured for additional aircraft configurations, such as MV-22. The fuselage is capable of being lowered into a pool provided by the government. After entry into the water in a horizontal position with the fuselage upright, the fuselage will be capable of rotation about its longitudinal axis. The current lifting systems (hoists and gantries) and control unit will provide at a minimum a two-speed rate of descent and retract. The students will be able to practice escaping the trainer with the fuselage submerged in an upright position, an inverted position, or any position between upright and inverted.
