Defence Research & Development Organization (DRDO) has launched the Hull Module of Submersible Platform for Acoustic Characterization & Evaluation (SPACE) facility at Naval Physical & Oceanographic Laboratory (NPOL) Kochi recently.
It is a state-of-the-art testing and evaluation facility for Sonar systems developed for use by the Indian Navy onboard various platforms, including ships, submarines and helicopters.
The SPACE facility is based on the concept, design and requirements projected by NPOL and has been constructed by L&T Shipbuilding, Chennai.
SPACE is a one-of-a-kind facility in the world. The uniqueness of this facility lies in the specially designed submersible platform, which can be lowered up to depths of 100 meters using a series of synchronously operated winches.
