Remote Multi-Mission Vehicle Unmanned Maritime Surveillance System

Multi-Mission Surveillance Against Undersea Threats

Lockheed Martin has developed and is testing the Remote Multi-Mission Vehicle (RMMV), an unmanned, autonomous, remotely operated, semisubmersible vehicle that will be operated and maintained from the Littoral Combat Ship. The RMMV is a crucial component of the LCSs mine countermeasures mission package. The RMMV tows an advanced variable depth sensor designed to detect, localize and identify moored and bottom mines in littoral regions. Integration and testing with the Multi-Vehicle Communication System is complete, which allows simultaneous control of two RMMVs. RMMV Reliability Growth program testing is underway. RMMV Provides Enhanced Tactical Value Unmanned, off-board systems keep sailors and ships out of the mineeld Operates at great distances and over the horizon 24-hour endurance provides persistent surveillance High mine reconnaissance search rate signicantly enhances coastal surveillance Can be employed, on a contingency basis, from shore-based or variety of platforms
