Testing was conducted during exercise Talisman Sabre in July. They involved the forces of Great Britain and Australia.
It is reported to be distant Australia operating center managed Excalibur at a distance of more than 10,000 miles (over 16,000 km). Moreover, the device itself was in an underwater position in the British waters.
This test was part of the series of Aukus Pillar II Maritime Big Play Pillar, which are held US, greatYu BritainOu and AustralOu to check Opportunities to jointly use robotics and autonomous systems in the sea.
The apparatus itself Excalibur Introduced in May this year, it was developed by the company MSUBS that specializes in autonomous submarines.
BEzhitilot has 12 meters longwidth 2 meters and its watertone It is almost 21 tons. It has a range the course up to 1000 miles (more than 1600 km) and can be immersed deeper than Ordinary submarines of the royal fleet.
The drone has a modular structure, which allows you to install a variety of pay depending on the tasks.
According to officials, excalibur Not intended for combat use, but will serve as a test platform for the development of tactics and technical requirements for integration of unmanned systems in future naval operations.
AND Counterradmiral James Parkin said Excalibur plays a crucial role in the preparation of the fleet for the era of autonomous sea drones.
”On our way to autonomy and mass, it is vital that we study in practice, and Excalibur will become our mechanism for understanding the complexity and challenges of operation of the future team of manned and unmanned systems underwater“, – he explained.
Excalibur will be expected to undergo large -scale running trials during the next 24 months.
