KEEPING CONSTANT WATCH
Carrying sophisticated ISR payloads, customisable to suit customer needs
Staying on station without interruption for up to 6 months, Bluebottle USVs support management of Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ), guarding against illegal fishing, people movements, importations and detecting other illegal activity. Bluebottles operate in a teamed environment with other undersea and surface assets, creating an interoperable suite of capabilities.
24/7 Maritime ISR
Months of autonomous surveillance per vessel.
Flexible payloads
Provides enhanced surveillance and additional payloads.
Tactical range advantage
Sail folds down to evade detection and during high wind.
Logistically simple
Launch and recovery from a boat ramp using road trailer.
