Defence and aerospace group Ultra Electronics Holdings PLC ( LON:ULE) said its Maritime Systems business, based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, has been awarded a C$25 million contract by the Defence Material Organisation in Den Haag, Netherlands, to supply advanced sonar systems.
The two Multi-static Active Passive Sonar (MAPS) systems will be fitted to the Dutch navy's M-class frigates as part of an upgrade process to prepare them for operating new NH-90 helicopters. Each MAPS system includes an acoustic projector and receive array together with handling equipment to allow deployment and recovery of the sonar while the ship is under way.
MAPS will also incorporate a high performance signal processing and display system developed by TNO Defence, Security and Safety, a Dutch defence research and development organisation. The first MAPS system will be delivered in 2011.
