Unmanned Surface Vehicles, Autonomous Maritime 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 brodband, seamless, resilient, real-time communication anywhere and everywhere 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.
