Earlier this year, Ultra Marine and Northrop Grumman joined forces to demonstrate unmanned anti-submarine warfare (ASW) capabilities, with the aim of bringing unique ASW solutions to global customers. The mission payload and effects were controlled from the ground with the resultant ASW picture disseminated to locations across the globe.
Watch the demonstration below:
By jointly developing and demonstrating UAS ASW capabilities, initially on an MQ-8C Fire Scout manned surrogate as part of an industry-led initiative, the partnership aims to help defend warfighters and provide increased capability to forces.
