Deep-submergence rescue vehicle

While DSRV is the term most often used by the United States Navy, other nations have different designations for their equivalent vehicles.

Each ship is equipped with either two Type 7103 DSRV or one LR7 crewed submersible undersea rescue vehicle.

[citation needed] France, Norway and the UK share the NATO Submarine Rescue System programme.

The United Kingdom operates the LR5 submersible in a submarine rescue role built by Forum Energy Technologies's Subsea Division.

It previously operated the LR3 built by Slingsby Engineering, which became part of Forum Energy Technologies (FET).

[6][7][8] It has the capability to rescue stranded mariners from depths of up to 650 m (2,130 ft) (and a detection range of 1 kilometre) and can run for about 3 hours.

The Korean navy operates a submarine rescue ship called Cheong Haejin.

MV Swift Rescue, launched 29 November 2008, is Singapore's first and only submarine recovery vessel.

Rescue is usually accomplished by ferrying rescuees from the stranded sub to the MOSUB, however, they can also be taken to a properly equipped surface support ship.
