A propulsion system (400) for an unmanned underwater vehicle (100) includes a turbine engine (160) having a combustor (162), a turbine (164), and a mechanical output shaft (168). The propulsion system (400) further includes an electrical generator (420) having a rotational input connected to the mechanical output shaft (168), and a poly phase electrical output. A direct current (DC) bus is connected to the poly phase electrical output via a rectifier / inverter. A DC to alternating current (AC) motor drive includes a DC input and a poly phase motor drive output, and a motor connected to the poly phase motor drive output.
