MULTIPLE MISSIONS.
MULTIPLE CONFIGURATIONS.
Potential USV use cases include, but are not limited to, personnel infiltration/exfiltration (including divers); logistics support; delivery of kinetic payloads; Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance missions. Kits are available to add on to the base USV configurations.
ALTERNATE PNT
AEVEX unmanned surface vehicles leverage alternative PNT (position, navigation, and timing) solutions to maintain precise navigation and operational capability in GPS-denied or degraded environments.
AUTONOMOUS OPERATION
AEVEX USVs achieve autonomous navigation through algorithms and sensor fusion, enabling them to navigate, make decisions, and complete missions without direct intervention.
CONFIGURABLE PAYLOADS
Our systems feature user-configurable payloads, allowing operators to customize sensors and equipment for a wide range of applications, enhancing mission flexibility and effectiveness.
OPEN ARCHITECTURE
AEVEX USVs are designed with open architecture principles that support interoperability and customization, enabling the integration of third-party sensors, software, and payloads to meet diverse operational requirements.
