−	The design's origins can be traced back to years of the [[Ryan Cartel]]'s [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/heyday heyday] during the [[Age of War]]. The Cartel's branch division, Ryan Systemics, developed the Jonah's forerunner, the ''Javis'' to help in the Cartel's effort development in their water trade with other worlds. The Javis was intended to handle different planetary conditions in water environments. However, the Cartel looked down on the development of the Javis and their designers due to rise of water filtration technologies at the time. Prior to the Systemics properties being sold off, the prototype would be stolen.<ref name="TRO:VAp170"/><ref name="TRO:VArp170"/>	+	The design's origins can be traced back to years of the [[Ryan Cartel]]'s [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/heyday heyday] during the [[Age of War]].

−	The design resurfaced in 2714 and was offered to Napa Tidal Research on [[Blue Hole]] as the "Jonah" by the descendant of the man who stole it, Unger Stefanis. Purchasing the design from Stefanis in exchange for Cokery Island chain on planet, the company would end up teaming up with Branson United to put the vehicle into production.  However, the unique hull form of the Jonah would create difficulties in mass producing in large quantities. The joint effort to produce the submarine ended in [[2724]], a mere ten years after limited production began.<ref name="TRO:VAp170"/><ref name="TRO:VArp170"/>	+	The design resurfaced in 2714 and was offered to Napa Tidal Research on [[Blue Hole]] as the "Jonah" by the descendant of the man who stole it, Unger Stefanis.

−	Interstellar Expeditions, then known as Interplanetary Expeditions (IE) would end up acquiring ruins of the factory on Blue Hole and revived the design for production by [[3047]]. IE produced the vehicle for its subsidiary company's exclusive use, but found it was a rather disappointing machine.  IE had found the design interesting due to nature of the original Star League era's design ability to be refitted with small micro thrusters and used as a small exploration craft. However, the design prove not to be as effective as spacecraft.  The vehicle would remain in production until the first years of the Jihad, when Blue Hole was captured by [[Clan Jade Falcon]] in [[3069]].<ref name="IP3p112">''Interstellar Expeditions: Interstellar Players 3'', p. 112, "Shackleton AESV" - Jonah Submarine's noted as early Interstellar Expedition effort to make spacecraft for exploring, but failed.
