Launch & Recovery Contract for EMNS11/09/2008 |
| ODIM Brooke Ocean has been awarded a contract by Lockheed Martin Corp. of Syracuse, New York, to provide a launch and recovery subsystem in support of their System Development and Demonstration Phase of the Expendable Mine Neutralization System (EMNS). |
|
The EMNS is a mine identification and neutralisation system for support of mine neutralisation operations from MCM-1 Class ships. It will replace the aging and maintenance intensive AN/SLQ-48 Mine Neutralization System and will provide ships with improved reconnaissance capability, positive identification of mine threats, reduced neutralisation mission times, and reduced maintenance in both time and required spares.
The launch and recovery system that Odim Brooke Ocean will supply is designed to meet the environmental and other MIL specs as defined in the primary contract. In addition, the overboarding boom is designed to allow both the Expendable Neutralizer and Exercise Neutralizer to be deployed and recovered a safe distance away from an MCM1 Avenger Class Ship and closer to the waterline to minimise pendulum motion when suspended from the umbilical.
