About this IDV
Naval Sea Systems Command awarded an Other Transaction IDV to L3 Technologies Inc. on March 9, 2026, with a ceiling of $50,168,296 to support Low-Cost Undersea Effectors (LCUE) Problem Set 2 prototype development and advanced maritime research capabilities. This OT vehicle sits outside the FAR and operates under statutory authority for defense innovation prototyping.
L3 Technologies manufactures autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) systems and acoustic communication equipment, with proprietary Iver-series AUV platforms and sensors serving as the technical foundation for undersea warfare and oceanographic research. The company operates primary manufacturing and service operations from Fall River, Massachusetts, and a training facility in Imperial Beach, California.
The OT IDV supports NAVSEA's effort to develop and prototype low-cost undersea effector capabilities as part of Problem Set 2, building on the vendor's established portfolio of Iver4 and Iver3 AUV platforms, payload integration, sonar systems, and operator training delivery. L3 Technologies holds a parallel $9.5 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Department of the Navy (through September 2029) that has generated three delivery orders for Iver maintenance, repair, spare parts, and materials; the new OT vehicle expands the vendor's undersea systems role into prototype development and advanced capability research.
L3 Technologies is a division of L3Harris Technologies, Inc., a publicly held defense contractor headquartered in Melbourne, Florida.
