Surface Ship Torpedo Defense (SSTD)
Abstract
The Surface Ship Torpedo Defense (SSTD) program provides a layered torpedo defense capability with four efforts; two of which are currently in development. 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 TDCL systems as an ACAT III program. 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 USS GHW BUSH. SSTD system will be installed on one CVN and one Combat Logistics Force (CLF) ship (both HVUs) with IOC defined as FY19.
