US Navy Buys More Iver3 AUVs

OceanServer Technology has received orders for 4 new Iver3 AUVs across 3 different US Navy contracts.

The new vehicles will include two standard Iver3-580 units and two new Iver3-450 Nano AUVs. The Iver3 Nano AUVs represent a new class of very small lightweight AUVs weighing less than 39 Lbs with modern chirp based sonar.

Two new Iver3-580 systems have already been delivered to the Navy EOD Group and the other 2 will be delivered within the next few months to the The Naval Oceanography Special Warfare Center (NOSWC).

OceanServer will also modernize 3 older Iver2 systems with higher resolution sonar and new DVL units that improve navigation and collect current profile data. The Iver platform has gained strong acceptance from Navy customers around the world for high resolution imaging in littoral waters.
