This is what Royal Navy submarines could look like in the future

Britain's Royal Navy has released a series of futuristic submarine concepts which mimic real marine life forms and radically change the way underwater warfare could look in 50 years.

The concepts, called Nautilus 100, include a mothership shaped like a manta ray, unmanned eel-like vessels equipped with sensor pods which dissolve on demand to avoid enemy detection, and fish-shaped torpedoes sent to swarm against enemy targets.

The project, celebrating the centenary of the USS Nautilus, the world's first nuclear-powered submarine, challenged young engineers to 'visioneer' the Royal Navy's future submarine fleet.
