RTsys press release
These 3 autonomous vehicles will be added to the existing range in use of SONADIVE handheld sonar units and therefore will give to the Slovenian Armed Forces through its EOD Diving Department full capabilities for Mine Counter Measures from very shallow water up to 300m depth.
The COMET-MCM is designed to quickly and efficiently cover large underwater areas with both
high-definition sonar imaging and TV camera capabilities, by offering the most accurate real-
time tracking and positioning of the market. Alternatively, micro-AUVs NEMOSENS, man-
portable and modular vehicle offering the same capabilities of live tracking and high accuracy
positioning would operate in very shallow water (less than 5m) for various scope of operations
like beaching operations, rapid environmental assessment or identification and localization of
underwater mines.
“Delivering a new complete MCM ecosystem to a NATO Country is always a privilege for RTsys and confirms the attractiveness of our company in the supply of sea-proven ‘manned / unmanned teaming’ solutions.
Autonomous vehicles combined with EOD divers’ skills remain the most reliable and efficient combination to operate safe MCM operations while reducing the time of divers’ action in the water. It also makes sense for Navies worldwide to cooperate closely with one unique manufacturer, from their original clarification of needs up to final delivery, operational training, spare part management and long-term support for maintenance.”
