UxS Endurance

Abstract

Advanced undersea energy efforts leverage existing independent research and development of energy-dense systems to meet future power requirements for Family of Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (UUV) missions, which are limited by both constraints imposed by the operational environment and the amount of power that can be carried. Efforts under this project include research, development, test, and evaluation of advanced energy solutions. Energy development and transition efforts are applicable to all classes of UUVs for increased endurance and efficiency to extend the reach of unmanned undersea systems. Parallel efforts include development and certification of safe, reliable, high energy density Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) batteries to enable both safe operation and UUV integration onboard host ships and submarines.
