Small Unmanned Undersea Vehicles
Abstract
As part of the Expeditionary UUV Family of Systems (FoS) the LIONFISH UUV Program of Record develops advanced SUUVs to support myriad missions across warfare domains. The missions include: expeditionary mine countermeasures, expeditionary data collection and surveillance, and intelligence preparation of the environment (IPOE). Equipment includes vehicles and associated systems support equipment. Planned block upgrades include increased detection range capability, communications upgrades, automated target recognition, cybersecurity, autonomy and command and control improvements, additional launch and recovery abilities, increased operational depth, and payloads as required. FY 2024 supports the completion of follow-on development, test and evaluation, and implementation of cybersecurity solutions to comply with current cyber requirements, leading to full rate production. Additional LIONFISH (SUUV) enhancements to include integration of forward looking sonar into the baseline Lionfish architecture will be pursued.
