300 warships cannot patrol 71% of earth's surface - they are becoming targets themselves
Ukraine shows: Drones are obliterating the old rules of power.
We are building what's next:
Wind Parks

Interconnected vessels can establish large perimeters detecting and identifying surface and underwater activity (dragging anchors, submarines)
Capable power supply for extensive ISR instrumentation
Payload agnostic platform with MOSA architecture, providing 200 W continuous power for customer-defined missions
Ten times more power than competitors - 200W continuous (2000W burst) reserved for payload
Solar-powered with infinite mission duration
Superior payload capacity - 50 lbs with easy access via removable waterproof cases
Large capacity enables extensive ISR instrumentation and mission flexibility
Cruise at 4 kn, burst speed 15 kn - catamarans are faster than mono-hulls
Wave-piercing bows improve speed and stability in higher sea states
Edge-AI enabled decision-making with collision avoidance, COLREGS understanding, and mission profiles
Built-in redundancy for critical functions, fits in BICON, assembly in < 60 min
Ability to submerge and hide from threats
Autonomy is a key capability of the Neptune Dynamix vessel. Designed from the ground up to be capable of:
