Surface Ship Torpedo Defense (SSTD)

Abstract

The Surface Ship Torpedo Defense (SSTD) program provides a detect-to-engage hard-kill torpedo defense capability through two development programs. The Countermeasure Anti- Torpedo (CAT) program develops a canisterized Anti-Torpedo Torpedo (ATT) as an ACAT II program. The Torpedo Warning System (TWS) develops the required ship systems as an ACAT III program. SSTD system will be installed on one CVN and one Combat Logistics Force (CLF) ship (both HVUs) with IOC defined as FY19. Additionally, the program will develop and field six Surface Ship Torpedo Defense prototype EDM systems on CVNs, two of which will be delivered in a RO-RO configuration and one hybrid prototype system on a forward deployed CVN.
