    Solico presents submarine emergency supply pods at UDT 2023

    Solico has designed and engineered a 77 litre machined aluminium emergency supply POD for the Royal Dutch Navy and will showcase the new design at Undersea Defence Technology (UDT) in Rostock from May 9-11th. When a submarine is downed or distressed, known as a DISSUB scenario, time is of the essence to deliver additional supplies that can supplement the submarine’s on-board life support systems until a rescue operation can reach the vessel.
