Navy Needs More Ships, Balanced Fleet
looks like you have your work cut out for you lt .cmdr
To achieve this balance,” Winter said, “ the U.S. will need more affordable ships, such as Littoral Combat Ships that can be tailored to the variety of missions we must be ready to carry out in the vast littoral regions."
ElectroWave USA designed an Engine Order Telegraph for the brand new United States Navy Littoral Combat Ship (LCS). To equate this technology to the old devices; if you remember in the old movies with ships (like Titanic), the person on the bridge would move these large brass handles between indications like "Full Ahead" "Slow Ahead" "Dead Stop", etc. The ElectroWave USA EOT is its modern day equivalent.
The EOT was designed to be PLC based (a USN requirement), and operate a number of water jet engines. ElectroWave USA designed a system that could easily be marketed to other types of ships. The ElectroWave USA EOT is now listed in the US Navy Catalog as a standard orderable product. You will find a few pictures below of our test and demonstration stand here at the factory. http://www.electrowaveusa.com/Projects/EOT.html
