Product catalog summary
System Capabilities
The SRV-8 MDV is equipped with advanced imaging sonar to detect mine threats. It uses the Viper MDS to secure a charge disruptor to the mine, allowing the operator to safely navigate away while deploying a shock tube. Activation of the charge neutralizes the threat, enhancing safety and operational efficiency for EOD dive teams.

How it Works
The SRV-8 MDV is a field-tested underwater ROV designed to detect and eliminate explosive mine threats efficiently. It utilizes Viper MDS technology for neutralizing IEDs and features adaptive software for quick threat neutralization by commercial and naval EOD teams. It can locate mine threats using a customized sonar tracking system and track underwater sound targets.

SRV-8 MDV Specifications-1

MINE DISPOSAL VEHICLE The SRV-8 MDV (Mine Disposal Vehicle) is the latest addition to Oceanbotics’ Special Purpose Vehicle Division. This field-tested underwater ROV will detect and eliminate explosive mine threats quickly and efficiently, utilizing ECS Special Projects’ Viper MDS technology for neutralizing improvised explosive devices (IEDs). The SRV-8 MDV’s ease of use and adaptive software will allow commercial and naval EOD teams to locate and neutralize mine threats quickly. System Capabilities • Locate mine threats using a customized sonar tracking system. • Use the SRV-8 MDV’s state-of-the-art imaging sonar to detect mine threats. • Track underwater sound targets such as emergency beacons and sonar transponders. • Upon reaching the mine, the Viper MDS will secure the charge disruptor to the mine. • Navigate to covertly marked locations using specialty transponders, ensuring secrecy in critical operations. • The operator will then navigate the vehicle away from the mine threat while deploying a shock tube that remains connected to the ROV. • By activating the charge through the shock tube, the operator will effectively neutralize the mine threat, ensuring the safety of both personnel and the ROV. • This new Special Purpose Vehicle prioritizes diver safety and enhances operational efficiency, making the SRV-8 MDV a necessary addition to any EOD dive team.
