Performance

When underwater emergencies occur, a trusted, proven partner is essential. Our submarine escape and abandonment systems are engineered for precision, speed, and survivability, delivering reliable performance under extreme pressure and time-critical conditions. From deep escape scenarios to surface evacuation, they enable rapid, controlled responses when it matters most.

Innovation

We are continually advancing our submarine escape and abandonment capabilities to meet the evolving demands of naval operations. Through new material sciences, technological innovation and strategic partnerships, we push the boundaries of survivability — developing solutions that set new standards in performance, integration and reliability beneath the surface.

Protection

Sub-surface emergencies demand absolute confidence in protective systems. Our escape and abandonment solutions are designed to safeguard submariners from depth to recovery, delivering thermal insulation, flotation, and life-support performance under the harshest conditions. Proven through rigorous testing, they provide the protection needed when submariner survival is the priority.

Product Benefits

Breathable Air Supply:
The built-in air cylinder ensures submariners can breathe comfortably and safely while ascending from pressurised environments.

Thermal Protection:
The TPG and suit combination offer superior insulation, protecting submariners from cold water and extending survival times.

Rapid Deployment:
The Single-Seat Liferaft (SSLR) can be deployed quickly after surfacing, improving surface survival chances during rescues.

Key Features

Integrated Breathable Air Cylinder:
Provides a controlled air supply, ensuring submariners can safely ascend from pressurised environments without relying on the submarine’s air system.

Thermal Protection Garment (TPG):
The TPG offers advanced insulation, worn over standard clothing to maintain body heat during cold-water escapes.

Single-Seat Liferaft (SSLR):
The integrated liferaft, stowed on the left hip, is designed for rapid deployment, offering extended buoyancy and protection once the surface is reached.

Double-Layer Design:
Built for durability, the MK11 suit includes a double-layer construction for enhanced protection in extreme environments, ensuring submariners’ safety throughout the escape process.

Certified and Reliable:
The MK11 Bottled Variant has been tested to meet rigorous safety standards, providing effective protection during pressurised escapes at depths of up to 200 metres. Its integrated air cylinder ensures submariners can control their breathing and buoyancy during critical escape phases.
