LDUUV-INP represents cutting-edge UUV research that will deliver game-changing capabilities to naval warfighters. This LDUUV-INP is the second version of the platform. “Sea-Air-Space presents a great opportunity for us to highlight ONR’s contributions that are making a marked difference to our warfighters, to our Navy and Marine Corps, and the nation,” said ONR Executive Director Dr. Walter Jones. “Scientific leadership in autonomy and unmanned systems enabled the LDUUV-INP, which will strongly complement our existing undersea capabilities and platforms.” Commander Stephen D. Martin of the US Navy Office of Naval Research told Navy Recognition during SAS 2015 that the LDUUV-INP program incorporates significant science and technology advancements, including leap-ahead capabilities in UUV endurance, power and autonomy.
