Description

Triton Systems proposes a novel propulsion and control system to improve overall performance for Mine Countermeasures (MCM) Unmanned Undersea Vehicles (UUVs). The Navy has noted that the current generation of propulsors used by small and medium UUVs are not highly optimized, in stark opposition to larger naval platforms. Tech refresh on current vehicles such as the Mk18 systems is needed to keep these systems best in class. Triton’s propulsion and control module will add a higher sprint speed capability, increase efficiency, and reduce acoustic and magnetic noise levels.
