The tests of underwater apparatus for the search and rescue naval forces began in the Baltic sea. Apparatus "panther plus" is created on the base of the British "panther", finished by Russian engineers with the use of the newest domestic and foreign technologies. The solution about the adoption of robots -spasatele1 to the armament VMF of Russia was accepted after the successful rescuing of deep water apparatus ACE -28 in Kamchatka during August 2005, when with the aid of the complex "scorpion" were rescued seven crew members. Its adaptation to the varied conditions for work and simplification in the maintenance was the purpose of the modernization of apparatus. "panther plus" can be immersed at depth 1000 it is meter, reveal small objects at a distance to 300 meter, transfer video image, raise to the surface and deliver to the soil loads by mass to hundred kilograms, conduct rescue operations on the lying on the soil submarine. Previously VMF of Russia planned to acquire the British rescue apparatuses "scorpion", analogous to those that participated in the rescuing ACE -28, but after the comparative analysis of the characteristics of different apparatuses specialists gave preference to complex "panther".
