Acoustic Intelligence - ACOUSTINT
Stealth collection of acoustic signatures in strategic locations
Acoustic Intelligence - ACOUSTINT
Stealth collection of acoustic signatures in strategic locations
Acoustic intelligence - ACOUSTINT
Stealth collection of acoustic signatures in remote strategic locations
Stealth system
- Hybrid navigation without propellers or with stealth propellers in very shallow waters
- Surface communication with an antenna having a very low radar and visual signature
- Acoustic recording landed on the seafloor
Concept of operations
- Stealth long-distance navigation in strategic areas (ports, naval bases, straits)
- Navigation without propellers in deep waters
- Final approach with stealth propellers in very shallow waters
- Bottom-landing mode for long duration signature recording
- Recovery of glider and collected data outside of the recording zone
- Analysis of recordings by intelligence services
Autonomous platform
- Range : ability to reach a target up to 1000km away and return autonomously
- Recording for up to 2 months in bottom landing mode (with single channel) once the target has been reached
- Easy to deploy from any platform
- Supervision and piloting from shore
High-quality and reliable data
- Timestamping
- Outstanding signal-to-noise ratio
- Wide band frequency range
Payload options:
AURIS: recording and in-situ detection and alert with ability to identify navigation direction
PORPOISE: long-term recording
