Unmanned Underwater Vehicle
Abstract
In order to accelerate future capability and support steady growth of the fleet's UUV Family of Systems (FoS) the Snakehead Large Displacement Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (LDUUV) program will design and build a modular, reconfigurable Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (UUV) with Open Architecture (OA) software (SW) focused on introducing a new class (large displacement) of UUVs to the Navy to provide increased endurance, payload hosting, and delivery capability. The Snakehead LDUUV will be modular in design and include hotel functionality (guidance and control, navigation, autonomy, situational awareness, core communications, and power distribution), energy and power, propulsion and maneuvering, mission sensors, and communications links. It is intended that modules will have well defined interfaces for the purposes of implementing cost-effective upgrades in future increments to leverage advances in technology. The Snakehead LDUUV is a CNO/ASN(RDA) approved Accelerated Acquisition phased approach to build capabilities at a manageable level of risk in the Navy's class of Large Displacement Unmanned Undersea Vehicles. It consists of two phases of government-led development with significant industry involvement transitioning to industry production of the full vehicles.
