Rebreather question

[scuba.dude]

What is the current military rebreather?

I dived a tourist charter and one guy had a Megalodon; the next day I toured the Museum of Diving and saw an 80's(??) rebreather w/ a Uwatec sticker on it that looked much less involved - got me thinking about what the pros currently use. As a veteran I understand OPSEC so if the answer violates, just tell me. Or just PM me.

Not positive, but I think there are a few different types of military rebreathers. A lot of units typically use chest mounted oxygen rebreathers for shallow depth. These are much simpler than a mixed has CCR. For the deeper stuff I think they were using Mk16s but I'm not sure. Juergensen Defense (same guy that makes Hammerhead electronics and the Hammerhead RB) does work with them.
