From the Surface
Torpedo Defense Systems
Today’s anti-ship torpedoes are more sophisticated, capable and harder to detect than ever before. Ultra Maritime’s Torpedo Defense solutions give naval fleets the decisive advantage by detecting, classifying and countering incoming torpedo threats. From advanced towed arrays to automated threat alert and integrated countermeasure systems, allied navies rely on the protection of Ultra Maritime’s world-class torpedo defense portfolio.
Layered Protection to Decisively Counter the Undersea Threat
Ultra Maritime’s layered torpedo defense system integrates active and passive sonar to detect and classify threats, delivering clear situational awareness, engagement timelines, and automated deployment of soft- and hard-kill countermeasures. A towed countermeasure provides a final line of defense, ensuring complete sensor-to-effector protection.
Delivering the Effects
Exclusive to Ultra Maritime’s layered torpedo defense architecture, the integrated ability to deploy both soft-kill and hard-kill countermeasures represents a step change in surface ship survivability. While soft-kill tactics can effectively decoy many threats, today’s advanced torpedoes often demand a decisive hard-kill response to ensure neutralization.
Ultra Maritime stands alone in delivering a unified system capable of seamlessly cueing and executing both effects—backed by proven operational experience in each—providing naval forces with comprehensive, adaptable and mission-ready torpedo defense.
Increasing the Operational Advantage
Ultra Maritime continues to evolve torpedo defense solutions to address the increasingly intelligent, reduced signature torpedo and unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) threats by networking and advancing acoustic sensor performance and accelerating AI-enabled automated threat evaluation and effector deployment.
