GDMS–Canada offers two distinct mine-warfare elements: a Mine and Obstacle Avoidance Sonar that provides automatic detection, tracking and alerts, and a modular Remote Minehunting and Disposal System integrating reusable uncrewed vehicles. The containerized RMDS is described as transportable by air, land or sea and adaptable to different host platforms.
Technical detail

Use & integration
Recorded applications
Underwater obstacle awareness
Mine-countermeasure system integration
These describe the reviewed application scope, not confirmed deployments, released requirements or procurement eligibility.
Evidence of maturity
GDMS–Canada describes its MOAS as mature and fielded with allied naval users. This does not establish an award or acceptance milestone for a particular RMDS configuration.
Commercial availability
Listed as a configurable defence-system offering through GDMS–Canada; programme scope and platform integration are defined with the customer.
