... thruster covers can be retracted by sliding them internally along the hull to uncover the thruster openings. The dimensions of the AUV are provided in Table 1 below. All variations of the AUV have a thruster, modelled as a propeller, without a shroud, located at the stern of the vessel, aft of the cross-fin structure. ...
