The USV launch and recovery 'missing link'
Sealartec's radical ALR-S technology can convert a conventional ship's stern ramp to a fully autonomous recovery system for unmanned surface vessels
The Naval Architect provides in-depth information on all aspects of vessel design, construction and engineering. Practical applications of latest technology and case studies are accompanied by analysis and foresights. Published every two months, the magazine covers everything from superyachts and short-hop ferries to tankers and heavy-lift vessels; from battery pack installations and sail-assisted solutions to LNG tank retrofits; and from offshore safety to warship resilience.
'ROC + Dock' project darts towards the wrap-up phase
The UK-based ROC + DOCK project has brought together remote-controlled operations, a dual-function simulator and a ‘hands-off’ docking station, to encourage force multiplication of uncrewed vessels in ports and harbours
Hybrid CSOV 'Windea Clausius' joins Bernhard Schulte Offshore fleet
The latest addition to Bernhard Schulte Offshore’s CSOV fleet, Windea Clausius, combines a methanol-ready hybrid propulsion plant with Ulstein’s Twin X-STERN design for energy efficiency and ease of operations
Wind power for patrol boats? Ask the New Generation
We've seen wingsails applied to bulkers and tankers - but aboard a smaller patrol boat? The latest design from MAURIC, set for launch in 2027, could open up an entirely new market for wind-assisted propulsion systems
Aircat on the attack
Singapore-based shipbuilder Strategic Marine has signed a memorandum of understanding with US-based Eureka Naval Craft to collaborate on the construction of the first Aircat Bengal MC Modular Attack Surface Craft.
Marine AI looks to give uncrewed vessels a voice
The autonomy software developer Marine AI has launched a project in the hope of granting uncrewed vessels the ability to “communicate naturally” with other ships, in the manner of a human operator. The project has received the backing of the Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA), a branch of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) created to fund the development of innovate tech solutions for the British Armed Forces.
