Visão geral
Under-10 m diesel combat USV from SNC's UK arm, part of the AEGIR family built for strike, EW, and resupply missions.
AEGIR-W is the mid-sized combat member of the AEGIR family of uncrewed surface vessels from Sierra Nevada Corporation, developed through its UK mission-systems subsidiary. The diesel-powered boat has a tough HDPE hull under 10 m long, reaches more than 25 knots, and can cruise beyond 500 nautical miles while carrying up to 300 kg of payload. Depending on the mission kit, it can scout and relay intelligence, jam or monitor communications, deliver supplies autonomously, or carry munitions. It can run fully autonomously or under a human operator and links into SNC's Digital Grid network for shared situational awareness. SNC has partnered with US shipbuilder Fairlead to produce AEGIR vessels for the U.S. Navy.
