Don't really know what NAVSEA stands for. They publish a lot of dive 
related information. Part  of the Freedom of Information Act allows for 
"classified" information to be excluded from any material delivered and 
guess who gets to decide what is classified? The agency that develops the 
information!
As to the physical layout of the unit I don't have the slightest idea. As 
i said in my post I'm looking for it for a friend of mine not me. My 
approach was to hit the Patent office for a search of all patents that 
had the word rebreather in the filing. We found Stones stuff and some 
others. I haven't got around to getting the copies yet.
As I understand it (someone tell me if i'm in error) a patent only 
precludes commercial reproduction (i.e. you could build your own unit, 
but couldn't sell, trade, barter, lease or rent it).
On my last visit to Florida I saw a fellows homemade rebreather. Looked 
relatively simple to construct (but so does an atomic bomb). Don't ask me 
for details or names as I figure if he wants to share details of his 
project he will do so. 
Later
r.b.
