 Fleet Diving Unit (Atlantic) members have started training on two autonomous underwater vehicles REMUS 100 (Remote Environmental Monitoring UnitS). These vehicles will mostly be used for seafloor mapping, underwater surveying and searching, to include near and under ice. It will be the first time that the Royal Canadian Navy owns REMUS and FDU(A) members intend on deploying them on board of HMCS Glace Bay, during Exercise TRIDENT JUNCTURE 18 in Norway, at the end of October. These vehicles are a great underwater situational awareness asset for the Royal Canadian Navy.
