Started as a project in 1996, SubjuGator has gone through many
redesigns. Both its mission and electronics have changed, requiring
modification to the body. Visits to each of the prior AUVSI UUV competitions
has provided motivation and direction for improvements.
The following shows SubjuGator's past five designs. Note that even
when the basic submarine design was not changed from one year to the next,
much of the mechanical and electrical hardware was generally improved.
