A cutting-edge, high-speed USV designed for multi-mission naval operations, from surveillance and reconnaissance to force protection and mine countermeasures.
Uncrewed Surface Vehicles (USVs) are robotic platforms that travel on the ocean’s surface for a variety of tasks, ranging from environmental monitoring to defense operations. They vary in size and design, with some capable of carrying significant payloads for sensors, communications equipment, or cargo. Powered by engines, propellers, or renewable systems such as solar and wind, USVs can operate for extended durations without crew. Though experimental concepts have existed for decades, modern USVs are increasingly deployed in commercial, scientific, and military applications.
USV This type of vessel is designed for a single purpose: to be remotely operated and used as a strike craft. It carries an explosive payload in the bow, intended to be directed toward an enemy vessel or floating structure, where it detonates on impact. The war in Ukraine has demonstrated the significant potential of this concept. The USV is equipped with an integrated Volvo diesel/propulsion unit rated between 200–500 kW, providing a maximum speed of up to 30 knots and a range of approximately 50 km. Construction can be in aluminum or GRP, depending on requirements. Remote steering is conducted via satellite, with encrypted communications to prevent detection or interference. The vessel features a stealth-inspired design, making it difficult to distinguish visually, often appearing only as a wave on the water.
