Sea Wasp represents a significant change in underwater operations against IEDs and similar threats by allowing bomb technicians to conduct underwater intervention for both improvised and conventional munitions. Designed to be operated by a small EOD/IEDD team – as few as two persons – the system can easily be configured to meet the specific requirements of any mission. Transportable over land in a light support vehicle, the Sea Wasp can be deployed from harbour walls or the beach. It can also be fitted to bespoke surface support vessels, and is flexible enough to be loaded into multiple varieties of boat, for example vessels of opportunity (VOO), rigid-hulled inflatable boats (RHIBs) and work boats, depending on the demands of the mission.
