To manufacture a small Unmanned Surface Vessel (sUSV). The sUSV will be a modular capability that interoperates as a component of the Long Range Unmanned Surface Vessel (LRUSV), reference Sam.gov notice identifications: M67854-19-I-1617 and M67854-21-I-1820. The sUSV purpose is to support LRUSV with extended reconnaissance reach and deliver kinetic and non-kinetic effects, including; Provide Offensive and Defensive Effects to increase survivability and performance of the USV mission Provide Rear Area Security for the USV Fires Mission Provide Scout ability to enhance the USV Fires Mission Provide sea vessel intercept capability System Characteristics Multiple sUSV assets transported, launched and recovered from a single USV Included launch and recovery mechanism for use on the USV Capable of semi-autonomous launch and recovery from the USV Beyond line of site SATCOM compatible Semi-autonomous mission control with minimal user cognitive load Autonomous navigation with obstacle/object avoidance and threat detection Ability to keep pace with an USV to enable escort and security Capable of semi-autonomous intercept of sea craft Operational in NATO Sea State 3 Survivable in NATO Sea State 4 Modular payload bay and control to enable various mission sets Low probability of detection, intercept and exploitation Timeframe Available for integration testing in the second quarter of FY24.
