BAE Archerfish for US Navy

BAE Systems has been awarded a contract worth up to £87 million by the US Department of Defence (DoD) to manufacture and deliver Archerfish mine neutralisers for the US Navy.

This is the fourth consecutive Archerfish contract awarded to BAE Systems since 2003 and will have the company deliver these over the next seven years. Archerfish is used by the US Navy’s MH-60S helicopter squadrons for Airborne Mine Neutralisation, deployed from Littoral Combat Ships.
