At
the 13th Baltic Military Fair BALT-MILITARY-EXPO 2014 currently held
in Gdansk, Poland, Israeli company DSIT showcases its new Aquashield
ER Swimmer Delivery Vehicle (SDV) and diver detection sonar. The AquaShield
ER was created by DSIT in response to the technology advances associated
with Swimmer Delivery Vehicles (SDV), Diver Propulsion Vehicles (DPV)
and Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV).
All of the above are much faster than the standard combat diver, thus
significantly reducing the response time available when using conventional
diver detection sonar systems. |
The AquaShield
ER offers unprecedented detection ranges against all threats including
SDVs, Open and Closed Circuit Divers (CCD). Prior to its introduction,
the AquaShield ER passed rigorous sea trials achieving detection ranges
of up to 3,500 meters for Swimmer Delivery Vehicle targets, 1,800 meters
for Open Circuit Divers and 1,200 meters for Divers using closed-circuit
apparatus. Existing and potential customers for this enhanced application
are navies, coast guards and any other entity and offshore critical
asset in need of the premiere defense against the threat of fast moving
Swimmer Delivery Vehicles (SDVs) and Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs). |
