Kraken Robotics, a developer of underwater imaging and power solutions, has secured approximately $24 million in new orders from over 10 customers across five countries, including three new defense customers.
The contracts cover the delivery of SeaPower batteries, KATFISH towed Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS), and Kraken SAS. This influx of orders comes as the company prepares to expand its production capacity.
Greg Reid, President and CEO of Kraken Robotics, commented, “SeaPower battery sales continue to be strong, with several new clients further diversifying our customer base in this area of the business. Manufacturing of our batteries in our new Nova Scotia facility is coming online in the next month, significantly expanding our production capacity. We are also pleased to share that we have sold a new KATFISH to the Polish Navy for their minehunting program and SAS to multiple defence customers for their autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) platforms.”
The Polish Navy initially selected KATFISH in 2020, deploying the system on Kormoran II-class minehunting vessels to support mine countermeasure operations in complex, shallow water environments.
The latest order was facilitated through Kraken’s Polish partner, Thesta, which was recently named an authorized reseller of the KATFISH system during the Oceanology International exhibition.
