Description

SDC will utilize our detailed knowledge of launch canisters and composites expertise to develop a multicell canister design for the Mk 25 that meets the harsh pressure, drop and handling requirements for the Mk 41 and Mk 57 Vertical Launching System (VLS). SDC will utilize a combination of filament winding and pultrusion to develop a canister that is high strength and affordable. SDC has teamed with KaZaK Composites Inc., a leader in the industries of pultrusion and canisters, to provide the NAVY with the most innovative manufacturing and teaming approach for this SBIR.
