Description

Great Lakes Sound and Vibration (GLSV) will develop a concept for an end-to-end design of a reconfigured ADC MK2 that meets the operational requirements of the current device, but only meets the environmental requirements for over-the-side shipboard launch. GLSV’s design strategy will take advantage of the fact that launching the ADC over the side of the ship will subject it to greatly reduced shock loads compared to submarine launch. The ADC will also encounter much lower hydrostatic pressures compared to submarine usage. These reduced environmental requirements will make it feasible to utilize more cost-effective COTS components with lower rated capabilities.
