In an era of contested seas and reduced tolerance for risk, mission level autonomy has become the backbone of effective defence operations. The rapid evolution of maritime mine warfare has driven navies to adopt increasingly autonomous approaches to mine countermeasures (MCM) and explosive ordnance disposal (EOD). As fleets move away from single‑platform operations toward coordinated […]
One Platform, Many Missions. Maritime mine warfare continues to evolve, driving defence forces toward uncrewed, modular, and networked underwater systems that reduce risk to personnel while sustaining operational tempo in complex littoral environments. HII’s REMUS 620, a second-generation, medium-class Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV), is purpose-built for this shift: it combines multi-day endurance, open-architecture payload integration, […]
As naval undersea threats grow more sophisticated, the demand for smarter, safer, and more realistic operator training has never been greater. As undersea warfare becomes increasingly complex, navies must rely on autonomous, rapidly deployable systems to ensure effective training and operational readiness. In response, SEABER has engineered a cost efficient solution designed specifically to […]
As oceanographers push deeper into uncharted waters, the Xeos Petrel X3 emerges as a vital lifeline; ensuring that even the most remote underwater assets find their way home. In the increasingly complex world of oceanographic research, reliable asset recovery tools are essential for safeguarding high‑value instruments deployed in harsh marine environments. Xeos by Satlink’s Petrel […]
In an era where robotic systems define naval superiority, SeeTrack stands at the centre: Uniting AUVs, ROVs, and operators into one powerful defence ecosystem As autonomous technologies reshape the underwater battlespace, naval forces increasingly rely on robotic and autonomous systems (RAS) to conduct complex and often hazardous missions. Recognised as one of the most […]
DeepSea Power & Light We would like to inform you that the SeaLite Sphere SLS‑7200 has officially reached end‑of‑life and is no longer in production. This decision follows the discontinuation of a critical component required to manufacture the unit. As a result, the SLS‑7200 is no longer available for purchase, and we are unable […]
In challenging underwater environments where visibility is almost non-existent, seeing clearly can be the difference between success and failure; and this is exactly where Blueprint Subsea’s ArtemisIRIS excels. This month BlueZone group had the pleasure of supporting a demonstration of Blueprint Subsea, part of the AION Group, ArtemisIRIS for the NSW Police Diving Unit. […]
Eight Days, Ten Cables, One Epic Holiday Turnaround While most businesses were winding down for the holidays, BlueZone was powering up. As December 2025 raced toward Christmas, our workshop was buzzing — solder sparking, cables flying, and moulding resin setting as our technicians pulled off a last‑minute Christmas miracle. When a client suddenly […]
When military operations hinge on understanding what lies beneath the waves, deployable hydrographic survey systems like the LRS become essential tools for safe, informed decision‑making. Military hydrographic survey operations play a critical role in ensuring safe navigation, operational readiness, and informed decision‑making by delivering precise, reliable mapping of the seafloor and surrounding […]
With Kraken’s MP‑SAS and BlueZone Group’s trusted in‑country support, Australian operators can now access a proven, portable SAS solution built for modern maritime missions. As the demand for high‑fidelity seabed intelligence continues to grow across defence, offshore energy, environmental monitoring, and hydrographic survey sectors, operators are increasingly seeking compact, low‑logistics solutions that […]
