AquaARX

Unmanned Surface Vehicles and Speedboats are critical for operations around the world in coast guard, surface warfare, military operations, troop and equipment transport, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions. These operations need broadband, seamless, resilient, real-time communication anywhere and anytime to make mission-critical decisions.

The AquaARX consists of a modem, a 12-inch antenna and a ground control unit. Despite the high speed of the Vehicles, the antenna’s high azimuth and elevation speeds and accelerations ensure uninterrupted communication. It transmits sound, image and data packages instantly wherever needed in the world. Instant data transmission will provide mission flexibility and enable better planning during unexpected situations.

Use Cases

Search and Rescue Operations

During search and rescue operations, both manned and unmanned surface vehicles can be deployed to locate and rescue individuals or vessels in distress.

Maritime Surveillance

Manned and unmanned surface vehicles equipped with sensors and cameras can be used for maritime surveillance to detect and track suspicious vessels or illegal activities.

Military Operations

Manned and unmanned surface vehicles can be used in military operations for tasks such as mine-sweeping, reconnaissance, and intelligence gathering.

Environmental Monitoring

Manned and unmanned surface vehicles equipped with environmental sensors can be used to monitor water quality, pollution levels, and weather conditions.

Cargo Transport

Manned and unmanned surface vehicles can be used to transport cargo between ships or to shore.
