Shallow Water Combat Submersible (SWCS) / SEAL Delivery Vehicle Mark 11 (SDV MK 11)
Abstract
SWCS provides for the design, development, and test of one EDM and 10 production units to replace the legacy MK 8 MOD 1 SEAL Delivery Vehicle (SDV) system. The material solution for SWCS is the SDV MK 11. SWCS is a free-flooding combat submersible mobility platform suitable for transporting and deploying SOF and their payloads for a variety of SOF missions. SWCS will be deployable from a Dry Deck Shelter (DDS), surface ships, and land. The SWCS system includes the SWCS vehicle and SWCS support equipment comprised of Mission Support Equipment (MSE), Pack-Up Kit (PUK), and Transportation and Handling (T&H). It also includes integration efforts with the current DDS and development of product improvements accomplished throughout the lifecycle of the system. SWCS line item is transitioning to SDV in FY22 to better align with historical terminology and material solution.
