General Dynamics‘ mission systems business has launched a new center of excellence in Taunton, Massachusetts for the production and testing of unmanned undersea vehicles.

The UUV Manufacturing and Assembly CoE of General Dynamics Mission Systems is a repurposed part of the existing facility and is dedicated to supporting UUV manufacturing, integration, assembly and testing, the subsidiary said Friday.

The CoE will specifically accommodate production and verification activities for General Dynamics’ Knifefish and Bluefin Robotics UUVs.

The Knifefish medium-class UUV is designed to support mine countermeasure operations by detecting and identifying mines in both high-clutter scenarios and buried state. Bluefin Robotics provides UUVs and other underwater sensor technologies made for commercial, research and defense applications.

The facility in Taunton, which measures over 500,000 square feet, also houses development work for communications programs with the U.S. Army.
