Not seen since Thunderball, the underwater breather makes its reappearance. Bond uses this device when he is infiltrating Gustav Graves' headquarters and fake diamond mine. To get in, 007 must swim under a sheet of ice and up through an opening inside.

Not content with controlling Icarus from a suitcase-like device, Graves has a suit designed that can communicate with the satellite in addition to pulsating with 100,000 volts of electricity. He uses this suit to battle kill his father and to battle Bond.

Icarus Satellite
The Icarus satellite's official use is to create day during the night and allow farmers to cultivate their crops year round. However, the megalomaniac Gustav Graves has also designed it to emit a high-powered laser onto a point of the earth in order to clear the minefield between North and South Korea in an effort to begin an invasion.

Aston Martin Vanquish V12
Bond is back in an Aston Martin for Die Another Day; this time the $250,000 Vanquish V12. The car is equipped with all the usual refinements including front-firing rockets, passenger ejector seat, guns and a driver-accessible control panel. More impressive than all that, however, is the invisibility option. Actually an adaptive camouflage device, the car has projectors all over its skin which take a snapshot of their surroundings and make the car essentially invisible.

Jagaur XKR
For the first time, the villains have a car that equals Bond's in terms of gadgetry. Zao's green Jaguar XKR has front grill missiles, machine guns on the hood, a gattling gun in the rear and mortar shells that can be launched.
