Raytheon’s HADALUS UUV Performs for U.S. Navy
Raytheon and Composite Energy Technologies (CET) have successfully demonstrated the undersea launch capabilities of HADALUS, a new, low-cost, long-endurance unmanned undersea vehicle (UUV).During a recent U.S. Navy exercise, the UUV completed a series of at-sea missions on a Navy undersea test range, successfully demonstrating its undersea launch capabilities while submerged. This marks the first time the U.S. Navy has seen this integrated capability in the water and points toward a future where a single unmanned undersea platform can perform detect, reacquire and engage functions within one mission.
Unique Group Provides Subsea Engineering for Open-Ocean Human Habitat
Unique Group, providers of subsea technologies and engineering, has successfully delivered the engineering, survey and infrastructure systems supporting Vanguard, the first open-ocean subsea human habitat deployed in United States waters in more than 40 years. Developed by ocean engineering firm DEEP and installed on the seabed at Tennessee Reef within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, Vanguard is designed to enable crews of up to four aquanauts to live and work underwater during extended scientific and operational missions.The project presented a subsea engineering challenge, creating
