The Problem This Solution Solves
Maritime forces face increasing challenges in detecting, tracking, and intercepting fast, evasive surface threats across contested environments. Traditional crewed assets are costly, slow to deploy at scale, and limited in their ability to operate persistently in high-risk zones. There is a critical need for low-cost, autonomous surface platforms that can collaboratively detect, intercept, and deter noncooperative vessels with minimal human oversight.
The Solution
Textron’s TSUNAMI family of autonomous maritime surface vessels offers a rapidly deployable, low-cost solution for multi-mission naval and coastal operations. With modular payload capacity, integrated EO/IR sensors, and both LOS and BLOS communications, TSUNAMI enables real-time ISR, harbor security, and mine countermeasure support without putting personnel at risk. Its open architecture ensures seamless integration into existing unmanned naval systems.
