ZeroUSV is one step closer to offering reportedly the world’s first charter fleet of fully autonomous uncrewed surface vessels following the successful launch of its inaugural Oceanus12 at Manor Marine in Portland, Dorset

The unveiling of the vessel, which is now ready for commissioning and integration trials from its home port in Plymouth, marks a significant milestone after 18 months of design, engineering and collaboration.

Designed for long-distance, over-the-horizon operations, the Oceanus12 is capable of tasks ranging from asset monitoring and geophysical surveys to border control and defence.
