Exail is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a contract by the Oceanic Observatory of Madeira's (OOM) to supply a DriX O-16 Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV), following an international competitive public tender. The USV will enhance OOM's capabilities in conducting comprehensive full-ocean depth scientific and hydrographic surveys.

Uncrewed Systems, a business unit of HII’s Mission Technologies, participated in the U.S. Navy UUV Confidence Course in Bangor, Washington, with their next generation medium-class unmanned underwater vehicle (MUUV); the REMUS 620. After shipping the vehicle from the factory in Pocasset, Massachusetts, to Keyport, Washington, the vehicle successfully underwent the full range of pre-mission checks and ballasting.

Kystdesign is proud to announce the signing of a contract with the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ) for the construction of the advanced Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV), the Supporter 6000. The contract was signed this week by NIOZ Director Han Dolman and Kystdesign Director Tore Nedland. The Supporter 6000 will be delivered in June 2026 and will serve the entire Dutch marine research community.

Exail is proud to announce the first sale of its DriX O-16, a transoceanic Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV). Designed for long-range maritime operations, it has been acquired by an Indo-Pacific customer operating in the civil sector.

The Marine Measurement Forum (MMF) is a series of one-day, non-profit making events that has been running since 1983 which provides excellent opportunities for networking and the informal exchange of ideas, knowledge, techniques and developments across an extensive range of marine scientific measurement activities.

HII’s Mission Technologies division has successfully built and delivered two REMUS 620 uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) for enhanced high-resolution ocean floor mapping.

The subsea world can be a murky place, making it challenging to monitor crucial operations like cable deployment. This is where the ISS360HD Imaging Sonar comes in, recently integrated with North Sea Systems' innovative CableFish® system. This powerful combination enables accurate visualisation and real-time monitoring of cable touchdown points during deployment.

For the past six months, the Navy has been studying the integration of uncrewed systems in a program out of Naval Forces Europe-Africa. Task Force 66, established in November, is similar to Task Force 59 in Central Command or Southern Command’s hybrid force, Rear Adm. Michael Mattis told USNI News last week. The task force is made up of 40 civilian and military personnel, according to a Navy release announcing the creation.

Within a week, Exail’s new transoceanic Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV), DriX O-16, was launched and tested at sea, and demonstrated to high-profile customers and partners, including major worldwide hydrographic institutes and navies.

Exail, a leading provider of maritime autonomy solutions, has unveiled its new transoceanic Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV), the DriX O-16. Benefitting from an autonomy of 2,500 Nm and a unique naval architecture that enables the USV to withstand the most severe ocean conditions, the new DriX O-16 has been designed for long-duration operations (up to 30 days) and can deploy multiple payloads and subsea assets.

Oceanbotics recently appeared on 60 Minutes Australia, where their SRV-8 underwater drone played a crucial role in taking down a major cocaine smuggling operation valued at $80 million. The episode, titled "What is parasite smuggling and why is it so dangerous," delves into the world of drug trafficking beneath ships and how law enforcement is utilizing Oceanbotics’ underwater drone technology to combat the issue.

Argeo confirms Letter of Intent for an agreement for the purchase of two Hugin Superior AUVs and one Hugin 6000 AUV. “Following this expansion, Argeo will have the most advanced AUV fleet worldwide”, says Argeo’s CEO, Trond Crantz.
