MARITIME SECURITY PAYLOAD
Extend Maritime Security Beyond the Crewed Fleet.
BlueShield is a modular maritime security payload that extends sensing, identification, and response capabilities across unmanned surface vessels.
Combining maritime domain awareness sensors with configurable escalation-of-force effectors, BlueShield enables persistent security operations across missions including harbor protection, high-value unit escort, and maritime domain awareness.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Components
SENSING
Maritime Domain Awareness
Persistent surface sensing extends awareness across the operating area.
Long-Range EO/IR
Electro-optical and infrared sensing supports long-range detection, identification, and classification.
Surface-Search Radar
Radar coverage provides persistent awareness of surface activity across the maritime environment.
EFFECTORS
Graduated Response
Configurable escalation-of-force effectors give operators multiple response options as a situation develops.
LRAD
Long-range acoustic capability supports communication, warning, and deterrence.
Configurable Effectors
Modular architecture allows response capabilities to be tailored to operational requirements.
MISSION APPLICATIONS
One Payload. Multiple Missions.
Harbor Protection
Extend persistent sensing and response capabilities across ports, harbors, and critical maritime infrastructure.
High-Value Unit Escort
Extend the security perimeter around high-value maritime assets with distributed unmanned capability.
Maritime Domain Awareness
Expand surface awareness to support detection, identification, and tracking across the operating area.
