Ultra contracted for hull-mounted sonar for Canada's Surface Combatant

摘要

Ultra Electronics Maritime Sonar Systems has confirmed a contract award to commence work on the hull-mounted anti-submarine warfare (ASW) sonar system to equip the Royal Canadian Navy's (RCN's) next-generation surface combatant. Under contract to Lockheed Martin Canada, the company is transitioning technology from the Sonar 2150 medium-frequency hull-mounted sonar previously developed by Ultra Electronics in the UK for the Royal Navy's (RN's) Type 23 upgrade and Type 26 programmes. The Canadian system variant is to be known as S2150-C.
