Cellula Robotics Ltd. has announced the sale of a Guardian AUV to a confidential defense customer.
Guardian is a commercial off-the-shelf Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) designed for ultra long-range missions. Capable of up to 5000-kilometer missions, it can release payload and off-platform assets with precision enabled by hovering and station keeping capability.
Guardian can be deployed from ship or shore and is easily transported in a standard 40 ft container. Measuring almost 12 meter long, with a 1.7 meter cross section, Guardian is the largest of Cellula Robotics’ AUV products.
Richard Mills, CCO Cellula Robotics, said, “We are honoured to be chosen to deliver a Guardian AUV system. Capable of long range survey, surveillance and payload delivery missions, Guardian represents the next frontier in over-the-horizon underwater autonomy, not just gathering data but delivering capability.”
