Info:
Although the BP60 is currently used for terrestrial applications an
underwater version was marketed to the US Navy and recreational dive
centers in the mid 1980's. They were the Cobra and CCR25 respectively.
The Navy did not see a need to replace their LAR-V RB's and the
recreational market was dropped due to liability issues. I have also
seen an underwater version of the BP60 marketed as the SeaPak..
