The General Service Lifejacket (GS) is designed for rapid response-driven maritime encounters. This compact, waist-worn pouch ensures naval forces are prepared for action stations, damage control, and tight space manoeuvres. Built for easy deployment, the GS lifejacket sits snug, ready for immediate use with a simple pull-over action.
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.
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.
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.
