The Explorer Submergible is an Aquatic Assault Vehicle (AAV) first manufactured by Hydrospeare Corporation's Design Team Beta for the Galactic Empire. It has a hull of lightweight link-steel with burthan threads that can withstand 8,000 bps of water pressure. Although still officially considered an "underwater exploration vehicle", its heavy armament is designed to destroy or subdue hostile lifeforms.

- The Explorer Submergible was an Aquatic Assault Vehicle (AAV) manufactured by Hydrospeare Corporation's Design Team Beta for the Galactic Empire. It had a hull of lightweight link-steel with burthan threads and could also withstand 8,000 bps of waterpressure, equal to a depth of 5 kilometers underwater on most worlds. The vehicle moves by scuttling across the ocean floor, using the sconce grip legs to grab a secure foothold. The crew compartment is very cramped, with both passengers stuffed into a small cubbyhole, and all crewmembers except the turret gunner lying on their bellies. The pressurized entry/exit hatch is located on the underside of the body.
