SMS Defence Solutions developed the VMS-SONAR federate for DSTO's Virtual Submarine project.
This federate can be configured to simulate a range of sonar arrays found aboard the
Collins Class Submarines.
The federate is HLA compliant
and was developed to a specification provided by DSTO.
SMS Defence Solutions utilised a structured approach to requirements analysis and design,
and documented traceability between requirements and implementation using UML notation.
Phase 2 development of the VMS-SONAR federate was completed by SMS Defence Solutions in March 2006 on budget and ahead of schedule.
More recently, SMS Defence Solutions has been providing additional support to
Maritime Operations Division of DSTO in
the integration, testing and documentation of the VRFP federates.
