Couach Unveils Its First Surface Drone “MAGELLAN”
Citat:With a length of six meters and a displacement between 1,000 and 1,200 kilograms, the MAGELLAN is the latest addition to the Couach Shipyard’s R&D department, in order to provide a systemic response to the needs expressed by its customers.
Citat:Its innovative diesel and electric propulsion is based on the use of a 13 Kw microturbine allowing it to navigate for 5 days at a speed of 6 knots, with a reduced noise signature to ensure its discretion.
By design, the MAGELLAN has been conceived as a modular technological platform, able to carry a large payload – more than 500 liters – for the integration of the equipment chosen by the end user. The drone can be equipped with modules, allowing for example the deployment of acoustic buoys or ESM type modules.
The USV package includes a mission planning module, a control center – on land or onboard – which ensures mission monitoring for its user.
Citat:With a length of 6 meters and a width of 1.3 meters, and a displacement of between 1,000 and 1,200 kg, the MAGELLAN was designed to be easily transported in a container. The drone is easily recoverable without assistance and without deploying a recovery system thanks to its retractable mast and its lifting hook.
