Proven in commercial service.
Ready for the mission.
Several of the systems in our defence portfolio earn their keep every day in commercial inspection and survey work. That dual-use base means mature, in-production, well-supported technology behind every defence delivery — with a deeper spares and training pool, and a faster, lower-risk route to capability.
Why proven commercial platforms make better defence buys
A system that already works for offshore energy, ports, aquaculture and survey contractors is not a science project. It is fielded, iterated and supported at scale — and that maturity is exactly what a navy, coast guard or first responder wants behind a mission-critical capability.
Mature & in-production
These platforms ship in volume for commercial work. You inherit proven hardware and firmware, not a one-off — with a clear roadmap and known behaviour in the water.
Deeper spares & training pool
A large commercial fleet means parts, accessories and trained operators are readily available — shorter lead times and stronger through-life support behind every defence unit.
Faster, lower-risk procurement
Off-the-shelf dual-use systems sidestep long bespoke-development cycles. Configure for the mission, add rental for surge, and get capability on-site in weeks, not years.
One maker, both worlds
Six of our defence suppliers also sit in our commercial catalogue. Each card links to both sides — the defence configuration, and the same technology working in Marine Robotics or Tools.
RTsys
Defence: a complete manned-and-unmanned MCM suite — diver sonar, MCM AUVs, acoustic firing — plus ASW training targets and sonar measurement.
Same maker, commercial side: autonomous survey AUVs and acoustic positioning for hydrography and offshore work.
Blueye
Defence: portable underwater drones for a rapid first look under hulls, harbours and infrastructure — a diver-safe option for search, recovery and forensics.
Same maker, commercial side: inspection-class drones for surveys, aquaculture and infrastructure integrity.
Tethys Robotics
Defence: an autonomous drone built for zero-visibility, strong-current and contaminated water — search & recovery, demining and UXO survey where divers cannot operate.
Same maker, commercial side: autonomous-navigation inspection ROV for turbid harbours and industrial water.
Hydromea
Defence: ExRay — a wireless drone with a detachable optical flyout — for covert hull search, confined-space inspection and protection of submerged critical infrastructure.
Same maker, commercial side: tether-free ExRay inspection and LUMA optical comms for offshore and confined tanks.
SEAMOR Marine
Defence: rugged inspection-class ROVs fielded by police recovery teams and port authorities — hull and harbour search, search & recovery and forensic survey.
Same maker, commercial side: observation-class ROVs from a portable 300 m platform to a 1,000 m utility ROV.
Coltraco Ultrasonics
Defence: ultrasonic instruments that prove a warship is ready — watertight-integrity testing, fixed fire-suppression cylinder checks, hull-thickness and flow measurement.
Same maker, commercial side: the same instruments for merchant-fleet safety, cargo and integrity testing.
Also in the defence portfolio, purpose-built for the mission: BeeX hovering AUVs and Seacoat hull protection.
From commercial fleet to mission-ready
We are a distributor and integrator — not the manufacturer — so we take a proven commercial platform and shape it to the mission, without losing the maturity that made it worth buying.
Proven First
The platform is already fielded commercially — real hours in real water, with behaviour and limits that are known, not promised.
Configured
We tune it for the mission — EMCON-safe operation, ruggedised handling, secure data and the right sensors for the task.
Supported
The commercial fleet behind it means a deeper spares pool, faster lead times and more trained operators than a bespoke system can offer.
Scaled
Rental and rapid mobilisation from the wider fleet put extra capability on-site for an incident, exercise or trial — without a fresh procurement.
The same fleet, from harbour survey to mine warfare
Explore the commercial side of these platforms in our Marine Robotics and Tools categories — or bring us the mission and we will specify the defence configuration. One accountable point of contact across both.
Trusted on both sides of the quay
The same platforms move between commercial and defence tasking — which is why the operators below already know and rely on them.
One partner across defence and commercial
Authorised Distributor
We represent each manufacturer directly — specification, supply and through-life support, coordinated from Denmark.
Dual-Use + Dedicated
Proven commercial platforms and purpose-built defence systems sit under one partner, so you can scale without changing supplier.
Rental & Rapid Mobilisation
Short-term rental from the commercial fleet puts a capable system on-site for an incident, exercise or trial.
Support & Training
Operator training, technical pre-sales and post-purchase support help your team get reliable results from day one.
