Designed and built for training naval personnel to combat the threat of attack from multi-vehicle fast inshore attack craft, the ASV FMTD is a high speed, cost-effective expendable target.
The craft is designed to allow for rapid damage assessment, ease of repair and low environmental impact on final destruction/disposal. The control system provides for multi-vehicle, close-quarters operations with good situational awareness and has been used up to a range of 10 km.
Multi-vehicle ASV FMTD batches have been delivered to and operated for the UK MOD during 2007/08. Used as a low cost but capable unmanned surface vehicle (USV) it has also been applied to other high-risk activities.
Status: Batches of FMTD’s supplied to the UK MOD.
