Shallow Depth Diving EQ
Abstract
This project is to develop systems to support submarine escape, survivability, rescue missions, and conventional diver operations. Diver operations include ship husbandry, salvage/recovery, and submarine rescue operations to support national, as well as, Navy needs around the world. Modern certifiable diving systems that ensure diver safety and allow maximum work efficiency will replace currently antiquated systems. Efforts through FY14 focus on the Submarine Rescue Diving and Recompression System (SRDRS) to provide a new rapidly deployed emergency submarine rescue capability. SRDRS provides a new capability of pressurized transportation of rescuees from a stricken submarine directly to the decompression system replacing the Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicles and Mother Submarines. SRDRS includes an air transportable rapid Assessment/Underwater Work System (AUWS), a Pressurized Rescue Module (PRM) or Rescue Capable System (RCS), and a Submarine Decompression System (SDS). The AUWS is in service and supports clearing disabled submarine seating surfaces, delivery of emergency life support stores, and disabled submarine assessment. The Submarine Rescue System-Rescue Capable System (SRS-RCS) completed OPEVAL in FY08 and is rescue ready. The Submarine Rescue System-Submarine Decompression System (SRS-SDS) is scheduled for IOC in FY14. The SRDRS will provide a global rapid response capability to support submarine rescue missions with an increase in capability at a fraction of the cost of the currently available systems. Shallow Depth Diving Equipment managed under SEA00C - This project develops systems to support submarine escape and rescue missions, and conventional diver operations. Diver operations include ship husbandry, salvage/recovery, and submarine rescue operations to support national, as well as Navy, needs around the world. Modern certifiable diving systems that ensure diver safety and allow maximum work efficiency will replace currently antiquated systems. R&D will be performed in the areas of contaminated water diving, diver thermal protection, and diver sound protection.
