The second contract is with a Middle Eastern navy who has chosen Cerberus for its ability to be operated in a very challenging sonar environment, as well as full Military Qualification for installation on Navy vessels. The system was delivered from stock within four weeks to satisfy the customer’s Urgent Operational Requirement (UOR).

Cerberus is the latest generation of AEUK diver detection sonar and is specifically designed to detect and classify open and closed circuit divers, swimmers, swimmer delivery vehicles and Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV’s). The system which is qualified for military use, is provided in a lightweight rapidly and easily deployable package and is capable of being operated from ships or as part of a fixed harbour installation. The system is in service with 8 nations.

Speaking on the new contracts Dr Antoni Mazur, Managing Director of AEUK said: “This year has seen an unprecedented amount of interest in our DDS system and I am really pleased that we have secured follow-on sales as it shows our customers are satisfied with our product and service.”
