Descripción general
Ocean Infinity's 14 m dual-hull USV, fielded by the Kuwait Coast Guard for patrol, live surveillance, mapping, and survey.
NeedleFish is a 14 m dual-hull USV developed by Ocean Infinity for the Kuwait Coast Guard's integrated maritime-surveillance network. Publicly demonstrated in July 2025, the craft combines uncrewed patrol, live beyond-line-of-sight surveillance streaming, mapping, and hydrographic survey within an onshore-commanded SRT C5iSR architecture. It is tailored to monitor Kuwait's approximately 11,000 square kilometres of territorial water and represents a notable transition of large commercial marine-robotics expertise into an operational national coast-guard system. Ocean Infinity has not publicly released complete performance figures, so the catalogue intentionally leaves range, endurance, speed, and payload capacity unspecified.

Notas
The first public operational launch and demonstration occurred in Kuwait in July 2025. Ocean Infinity has not published stable public figures for speed, range, endurance, displacement, or payload capacity, so those fields remain null.
