U-Boat Worx Naval – Models
Supersub (Search and Rescue)
The Super Sub model is optimized for search and rescue operations, damage assessments, and unexploded ordnance (UXO) identification. It features a safe 1-atmosphere cabin for real-time decision-making, an untethered design for extended missions, precise maneuverability, stable imaging capabilities, and high payload capacity, offering reliability in high-stakes scenarios with proven modular systems.
SDV (Seal Delivery Vehicle)
The SDV supports manned and unmanned operations for covert maritime special operations forces (MARSOF) missions, featuring a modular design for increased payload and flexibility. It enables tandem operations between manned and unmanned units, autonomous capabilities, and interchangeability for secure extraction if compromised, enhancing efficiency in direct insertions and autonomous tasks.
UHV (Unmanned Hybrid Vehicle)
The UHV addresses gaps in underwater defense with capabilities for long-range patrolling, rapid threat response, and flexible interventions. It operates autonomously on the surface and subsea, blending combustion-driven speed for deterrence with electric propulsion for stealth. Modular tools such as robotic arms, harpoons, or torpedoes are supported, along with remote control via a deployable buoy, providing endurance, deep-water operation, and easy deployment as a strategic force multiplier.
UUV (Unmanned Underwater Vehicle)
This UUV is built for autonomous, semi-autonomous, or remote-controlled operations focused on surveillance, patrolling, and threat intervention. It excels in detection, classification, and tracking, aiding anti-submarine warfare (ASW) and counter-UUV missions with net systems and countermeasures. Key features include high-speed maneuverability, short response times, long-duration endurance, and a modular design, ideal for protecting strategic areas like ports and harbors.
XLUUV (Extra Large UUV)
