Summary
[edit]DescriptionProject Wilton demonstration on the Clyde MOD 45165479.jpg |
English: Pictured is the Atlas Elektronik’s ARCIMS vehicle during testing as part of the Royal Navy's Project Wilton.
The UK Royal Navy will begin mine hunting and survey operations using unmanned surface vessels (USVs) in early 2020. The navy will deploy a mix of unmanned and remotely-operated USVs, and submersibles designed to detect ‘smart mines’ and conduct survey missions of the ocean and seafloor from HMNB Clyde. Capabilities include Atlas Elektronik’s ARCIMS vehicle designed for minesweeping, mine hunting, mine disposal, anti-submarine warfare, surveillance, force protection and diver support using several different mission module options. ARCIMS first gained notice as part of Exercise Unmanned Warrior in 2016, where 50 participants demonstrated the capabilities of unmanned systems to the Royal Navy. Wilton is seen by the Royal Navy as a steppingstone between current and future mine countermeasures (MCM) technology, with the ultimate goal of delivering and developing a fully autonomous MCM system for the UK which would be able to be deployed from many vessels including the existing surface fleet. The systems are designed to be transportable via low-loaders, meaning they can be quickly deployed into theatre wherever they are needed. For the time being the vessels will be based in the UK where they will survey and patrol British waters while providing data on their use that the Royal Navy can learn from for future deployments. At the moment the vessels will be used for route survey with mine disposal capabilities being further developed.
