This inherent benefit of TRAPS meets the defined and growing need for low cost, compact ASW sensor systemsthat can be fitted to small combatants, offshore patrol vessels, and even militarized commercial vesselsand unmanned surface vehicles (USVs).
“We’re very excited about having the opportunity to test a TRAPS system on a Canadian Navy ship”, said Paul Yeatman, GeoSpectrum’s President. “Through the Build in Canada Innovation Program, the Royal Canadian Navy will be able to test a portable ASW sonar system that can be operated from vessels of opportunity, including our Maritime Coastal Defence Vessels (MCDVs) and the new Arctic Operations Vessel (AOPV). We are looking forward to leveraging this project to access the international market for towed ASW sensors and creating jobs in Canada.” |
