Aquanaut® 2.1

Model Aquanaut® 2.1 (based on Aquanaut® Mk2)

All-electric, untethered subsea vehicle for autonomous transit, survey and inspection, configurable up to a 3,000 m design rating; build slots available.

Description

Aquanaut® 2.1 is the improved commercial configuration of Nauticus Robotics' field-tested Aquanaut® Mk2 platform. It keeps the all-electric, untethered architecture and Nauticus ToolKITT™-native autonomy and is built for autonomous transit, survey and inspection at depth. Cable and pipeline following is targeted for the 2.1 delivery program, and the vehicle is designed for a future autonomous manipulation update working with Nauticus manipulators. Final configuration depends on depth rating, battery fit, payload package and mission profile.

Key features

  • Depth configurable up to a 3,000 m design rating; 2,300 m operating depth demonstrated on Aquanaut® Mk2
  • Cruising speed 3 knots; endurance up to 72 hours
  • Native closed-loop station-keeping in a 1-knot current
  • Battery capacity configurable up to 101.1 kWh; recharge circa 8 hours at full capacity
