Description
We will design, build and demonstrate rapid, on-demand point of need manufacturing for a 3D printed aluminum 2.5 meter long semi-submersible UUV as a single continuous hull. This UUV will utilize a bill of materials and electronics common across our proposed digital UxV family: UAV, USV and full ocean depth capable UUV deployable systems. These can be built in a Phase II effort. The costs for the Phase I Base amount being proposed is $149,885.32
