Ed Cook, vice president and general manager at Ultra Maritime U.S., underscored the importance of ensuring sailor safety and maintaining adversary deterrents in the current maritime landscape.
“As the only qualified provider of the cutting-edge Q-62 and Q-53 sonobuoys, we at Ultra Maritime are honored to play a pivotal role in advancing anti-submarine warfare capabilities for the U.S. Navy and our allied nations,” Cook added.
