Long-term Mine Reconnaissance System (LMRS)
Ocean Systems - Integrated LMRS Approach
Teams
System Engineering
- UUV performance measurement model
- Variable reliability measurement model
- Reconfigurable life cycle cost model
- All three models are linked together
- Allows a variable in any one model to affect the other models
- Allows for a balanced design with maximum benefit
UUV Preliminary Design
- Total area coverage threshold exceeded
- Area coverage rate threshold exceeded
- Vehicle sortie reach threshold exceeded
- Navigation accuracy better than required
- Vehicle endurance threshold exceeded
NSE Preliminary Design
- Turnaround time better than required
- Minimized LMRS dedicated personnel
- Compatible with SSN, NSSN, and support ships
- Multiple simultaneous sorties supported
- Recovery method is readily repeatable
- Fully air transportable
SDE Preliminary Design
- Minimizes need for special tools
- Design provides for easy removal of and replacement of failed modules
- Handling, tear-down, test and rebuild issues identified and preliminary designs in place
