Expeditionary Underwater Systems
Abstract
Funding supports the development of unmanned systems for the Navy's expeditionary unmanned underwater Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) and Mine Countermeasures (MCM) capability. Specifically, it provides for development of affordable expeditionary, unmanned underwater systems to support Navy Expeditionary forces including EOD, Mobile Diving and Salvage, Underwater Construction Teams (UCT), Very Shallow Water (VSW), and Expeditionary Mine Countermeasures (ExMCM) mission operations. The equipment must be highly portable in order to support the Navy EOD technician to safely approach, render safe, recover, exploit, and dispose of underwater explosive threats to include sea mines, limpet mines, and unexploded ordnance. Provides support for the Navy's high priority missions of Maritime Homeland Defense and MCM, including clandestine reconnaissance and mine clearance in support of amphibious operations. Development of Expeditionary UUV systems, including the MK 18 UUV Family of Systems, to support localization render-safe and detailed intelligence gathering of unexploded ordnance (UXO) including Underwater Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs). This project directly supports Department of the Navy Strategic Roadmap for Unmanned Systems promulgated in March 2018 and the requirements defined by the Maritime Expeditionary MCM UUV (MEMUUV) CDD and is being executed in accordance with approved CNO N9I Requirement #056-95-19, "Capability Development Document for Maritime Expeditionary Standoff Response Family of Systems," July 23 2019.
