SALT AMS Over-the-Beach Amphibious Mobility
Watch SALT AMS deploy for swim propulsion, retract for movement ashore, and remain with the operator across the sea-air-land transition.
End the fin penalty across mission transitions
Conventional fins impose a size, weight, stowage and timing penalty before and after the swim. SALT AMS is worn with mission footwear, remains underfoot during movement, and locks at any position along the blade path to match the aquatic environment. Short extension supports maneuverability and torque, mid-extension provides propulsion comparable to a compact fin, and full extension supports a paced combat swim.

- Universal fit from U.S. size 6–15 across patrol, combat and structured-sole dive footwear
- Applicable to OTB, helocast, MFF/HALO, surface craft and submarine transitions
