Mission Specialist Ally
The Mission Specialist Ally is designed for optimal power and lift, all within a sleek and compact design. Boasting a spring-loaded vertical manipulator and offering a choice between two float block options, the Mission Specialist Ally paves the way for progression towards the Mission Specialist Defender and upcoming configurations in the Mission Specialist lineup.
Modular Design, Unlimited Possibilities
VideoRay Mission Specialist Ally is designed and built with flexibility in mind. The modular design enables an upgrade path to the Mission Specialist Defender and upcoming configurations in the Mission Specialist lineup.
1. The Mission Specialist Ally seamlessly integrates with an optional Reach Alpha manipulator, featuring a spring-loaded mounting system. This innovative design ensures precise centering of the manipulator during object retrieval, enhancing vertical thrust efficiency to new heights.
2. The Mission Specialist Ally can be equipped with an optional BluePrint Oculus M750d, M1200d or M3000d.

5. The Mission Specialist Ally has two float block options. A rounded float block that excels in navigating confined spaces and where shore power is available. The other is a squared float block that enables the use of Subsea Batteries.
6. The Mission Specialist Ally is outfitted with four high-performance Mission Specialist thrusters, delivering impressive capabilities of 4 knots horizontal thrust, 1.5 knots vertical thrust, and 1 knot lateral movement.
7. Enhancing the Mission Specialist Ally’s capabilities, an optional upgrade includes the ability to perform station keeping by harnessing the power of the Waterlinked A50 DVL (Doppler Velocity Log)
