Extend fleet reach

SQ30, powered by FLANQ, delivers fully autonomous naval missions across coastal waters and the open ocean without tasking a dedicated crewed survey vessel. Long endurance allow commanders to establish domain awareness across wider operating areas in support of freedom of navigation, amphibious planning, mine clearance and environmental assessment.

From coast to ocean

Dual Kongsberg or Norbit multibeam echosounders provide complementary capability from shallow littoral waters to deeper offshore environments. This integrated sensor configuration supports high-resolution coastal survey and wide-area seabed mapping from a single platform, reducing mobilisation demands while extending force capability.

Offshore capable

Conduct autonomous survey operations from coastal waters to the open ocean, extending seabed awareness with the deployed force.

Dual sonar coverage

Combine Kongsberg or Norbit multibeam echosounders for shallow-water detail and deeper offshore mapping.

Expedition ready

Deploy with mission control, secure communications and survey sensors from harbours, mission bays or containerised support infrastructure.

Where it is used

All missions

Hydrography & Marine Survey

Chart the seabed and profile the water column without a crewed vessel. Sentiq configures survey-grade autonomous platforms for hydrographic charting, port bathymetry, offshore energy survey and marine scientific research.

Mine Countermeasures

Platforms not people in harm’s way. Sentiq configures autonomous and remotely operated systems to extend search, investigation and threat neutralisation from shore or host platform.

Anti-Submarine Warfare

Detect, localise and maintain awareness of submerged platforms. Sentiq integrates autonomous platforms, underwater sensing and distributed surveillance to extend ASW coverage and strengthen the underwater threat picture.
