MSM team testing despite pandemic
PANAMA CITY, Fla. - Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City’s (NSWCPC) Off-board Systems Development Branch continues to meet mission requirements during the COVID-19 pandemic. Its Mine Countermeasure Unmanned Surface Vehicle (MSM USV) project team is supporting contractor testing near NSWCPC using the Coastal Test Range (CTR). This effort is sponsored by the Program Executive Office for Unmanned and Small Combatants. The CTR is a combination of diverse training and test fields managed by NSWCPC and used to support the needs of the mine warfare (MIW) community. These ranges provide unmatched locales to conduct tests needed to advance the MCM USV program.
