HII subsidiary’s Proteus on display

NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. – Proteus, a dual-mode undersea vehicle, and DroneDefender, an anti-drone system device, will be on display here at the Sea Air Space Show from May 16-18. Battelle and Huntington Ingalls Inc. subsidiary Undersea Solutions Group developed Proteus, which recently completed 720 hours of endurance testing – 2,412 simulated nautical miles in a submerged tank - in Panama City, Fla., to demonstrate reliability and long-duration missions for the Navy. Battelle’s DroneDefender is a portable system that provides security protection against small UAS devices through use of radio control frequency disruption.
