Carriage, Stream, Tow, and Recovery System (CSTRS)
Providing an organic airborne mine countermeasure capability from an H-60 helicopter
The Carriage, Stream, Tow, and Recovery System (CSTRS) is a launch and handling system. It was designed to support the U.S. Navy’s requirement to provide an organic airborne mine countermeasure capability from an H-60 helicopter. CSTRS enables rapid response to mine threats. It also provides an extra measure of safety for crew and ships during shallow water missions. In addition, the CSTRS design is modular. It is capable of supporting the deployment requirements of both towed and non-towed mine countermeasure sensors as well as the release of unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) that provide a wide range of mission capabilities.
