The AUV programme at FFI

FFI has worked on AUVs for more than a decade. The long term goal of the research programme is to introduce these vehicles to service in a number of roles in the Norwegian armed forces.

Possible military uses of AUVs include:

  • Mine countermeasures (MCM)
  • Anti-submarine warfare (ASW)
  • Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance
In April 2002, FFI started a three-year project to develop the HUGIN Mine Reconnaissance System (HMRS). The project will enable delivery of a full capability system for efficient mine hunting by 2004/05.
