SeaHake®
mod 4 is the latest advancement of the DM 2 A4 heavyweight torpedo,
which is in service with the German Navy as well as the navies of
Turkey, Pakistan and Spain. By fully exploiting the system’s
unique propulsion and battery technology, it became possible to surpass
the maximum ranges usual for modern heavyweight torpedoes in the global
market by considerably more than 50%.
The new version of the SeaHake® mod4 is also fitted with innovative navigation and communications technology, enabling extremely precise navigation and control of the torpedo over the entire distance. The SeaHake® mod4 ER can be deployed from seagoing platforms as well as from special land-based platforms. During a test-firing in March 2012, the heavyweight torpedo SeaHake® mod4 ER (Extended Range) achieved a range of over 140 kilometres. |
