The initial 2019 value of the contract is approximately US$5.4 million. The award has a maximum value of US$22.2 million through December 2024, if all contract options are exercised.

The AUVs will have modular constructions to allow the integration of various mission-specific sensor packages as well as easy replacement of battery packs in the field.
