New torpedo defence system selected for Royal Australian Navy's Hunter-class frigates

Ultra Maritime previously announced that its hull mounted sonar has also been selected for the Hunter class. Both systems are included in the baseline Type 26 warship's ASW design, meaning the RAN will share commonality with the UK, Canada, Norway, plus other countries that will use this hull form in the future.

The company said the RAN will not only benefit from scale and commonality, but through future spiral developments and through life support.
