Discovery 4 in the deep
Found the following picture in the news showing a police discovery 4 being driven through deep water, though I am not sure of the wisdom of driving through deep water without a raised air intake.
Looking at the photo I couldn't see a air intake raised.

although this shot captured a second or so later is more dramatic...

RAI is not watertight in any case so it wouldn't make much difference tbh .....I suspect if you saw a shot from the side at this point then the bow wave actually drops away under the intake level .....the picture gives a false impression of depth 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
