REMUS M3V – Micro 300m UUV

Sonobuoy A-size UUVs enable an accelerated MCM timeline

Mine Counter Measures (MCM) phases of Detection, Classification and Identification can be constrained by the availability of assets to simultaneously search a large area. Cost and the availability of trained resources also limit the operations that can be performed.

The REMUS Micro 300m UUV (M3V) enables new operational concepts for MCM Detection and Classification phases.

With its small size enabling rapid deployment of multiple units it provides the ability to deploy a swarm of vehicles to address a large search area. Helicopter or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle deployment is an option to counter defensive nets around minefields. More data can be obtained in faster time enabling ‘manoeuvre and mobility’ rather than having to punch through a minefield situation.

With its small size and simplified training, the REMUS M3V offers more options in contested, confined or estuarine environments

A unique capability of the M3V is to adopt a buoy mode enables ‘gateway communications’ for data transmission from subsea assets to satellite services and back to command positions.

The REMUS Micro 300m UUV (M3V) A-size vehicle enables a variety of deployment options including air, small boats and submarine.

The REMUS M3V in buoy mode enables communications with subsea assets via acoustic links and transmission of data via satellite links to shore.
