Underwater intrusions by terrorists are often accomplished through innovative methods, using underwater systems such as SDVs (Swimmer Delivery Vehicles) and swimmers with or without breathing equipment.

Since there are very few land-based security systems that can generate effective underwater awareness, these intruders enjoy almost unrestricted access to every country with a shoreline. In addition to threatening the freedom of maritime travel and trade, this new reality has, in many cases, made defending and securing coastlines and strategic assets a significantly greater challenge than protecting land-based assets.

DSIT Solutions offers a comprehensive autonomous and automatic Underwater Domain Awareness solution that detects, classifies, and tracks all underwater threats.

The solution comprises DSIT’s three main underwater sonar systems:

SeaShield™ –  a Coastal Domain Awareness Sonar (CDAS) System that provides underwater long-range, real-time coastal surveillance; AquaShield™ – a robust Diver Detection Sonar (DDS) system;  PointShield™ – a stationary or Portable Diver Detection Sonar (PDDS) system, and KnightShield™ – a mobile, port-wide, multi-vessel sonar-based underwater security system.
