Description
ADI was awarded a AUD$1 billion contract to design and
build six world leading Huon Class Coastal Minehunters and provide
associated support products and infrastructure for the Royal Australian
Navy (RAN).
The ships are based on the proven Italian GAETA Class,
derivatives of which are in service with five other navies including
the United States Navy. ADI established a state-of-the-art facility on
a greenfield site in Newcastle, New South Wales. The success of this
program has been recognised by the Department of Defence.
All minehunters have been delivered on time and to
budget with performance exceeding customer expectations. The ability of
ADI's system engineering and integration capabilities were recognised
with the winning of a National Engineering Excellence Award from the
Institution of Engineers Australia.
- Maxsurf and Hydromax have been used to do intact and damaged analysis on the Huon Class Minehunter.
