I have no doubt in my mind that the first customer for this product would have been the US Navy.

you can see the ball continues to accelerate through water instead of slowing down by the dragging force of water... which is pretty awesome... if you don't understand the point of this video, you dont even deserve those 6 seconds back. stop bitching
