HII’s Pharos with Navy’s Snakehead Phase 1 LDUUV being recovered via the boat-launch ramp at the Narragansett Bay Test Facility at Naval Undersea Warfare Center in Newport, RI. The test demonstrated that the Pharos launch and recovery (LAR) asset can be adapted to a wide range of vehicles, including LDUUVs, and be lowered down and pulled up a ramp to simulate disembarking and embarking the LAR system from the well deck of an amphibious ship.
