Defense

REVOLUTION and PIVOT

Defense applications demand robust, reliable systems capable of operating in complex and often time-sensitive environments. Deep Trekker ROVs are deployed across various military and government agencies for missions involving explosive ordnance disposal (EOD), mine countermeasures (MCM), search and recovery (SAR), and hull or infrastructure inspection.

EOD / MCM / SAR Operations

ROVs are used to identify, navigate to, and evaluate underwater targets using both visual and acoustic data. Side scan and imaging sonar are used for wide-area detection, followed by close-range identification and classification of potential threats. Operators use BRIDGE mapping, ROV GPS, DVL, and SensorPod+ to track search coverage, plan approach vectors, and maintain situational awareness.

Post-identification, the ROV can assist in mine disruption planning or target marking for diver teams. For recovery missions, SAR packages provide real-time tracking and navigation to ensure systematic search patterns with minimal overlap.

Common EOD / SAR Packages

SAR Packages

Recommended Sonars

M1200 – High-frequency imaging sonar offering excellent resolution for target identification at close range.
