Vessel Fleet

• Spyglass: 6-foot tactical ASV with ~30 nm range and ~40 lb payload capacity, used for reconnaissance, surveillance, tactical deployment, and swarm operations; priced around ~$400K.
• Cutlass: 14-foot patrol ASV with ~300 nm range and ~200 lb payload capacity, supporting extended patrol missions, C2 relay, and deployment of other unmanned systems; priced around ~$800K.
• Corsair: 24-foot operational ASV with 1,000+ nm range, 35+ knots speed, and ~1,000 lb payload capacity, designed for multi-mission operations and extended autonomous missions; priced around ~$1.2 M.
• Mirage: 40-foot medium ASV with 2,000+ nm range and ~2,000 lb payload capacity, supporting long-endurance and manned–unmanned teaming missions.
• Cipher: 60-foot large ASV designed to carry one 20-foot ISO container or equivalent, supporting cargo and critical systems transport.
• Marauder: 150-foot medium unmanned surface vessel (MUSV) with ~3,500 nm range, 30+ days loiter time, and 40-metric-ton payload (up to four 20-ft or two 40-ft ISO containers); first deliveries targeted for early 2026.

Autonomy & Software Stack

• Unified autonomy stack powers all vessel classes, providing common mission planning, navigation, swarm coordination, and over-the-air update capabilities.
• Designed to operate in GPS-denied and communications-contested environments using AI-driven navigation, sensor fusion, and target recognition capabilities.
• Supports collaborative autonomy, enabling multi-vessel swarms with distributed decision-making and adaptive tactics across large operating areas.

Modular Payload & Open Architecture

• Vessels are designed from the keel up for autonomy and modularity, not as retrofits of manned platforms, optimizing hull geometry, power systems, and sensor placement for unmanned missions.
• Open architecture supports third-party payload integration, including ISR sensors, electronic warfare systems, communications relays, and weapon systems (e.g., Anduril payloads demonstrated in Navy exercises).
• Enables rapid reconfiguration of vessels for different mission profiles without substantial redesign.

Echelon Mission Platform

• Echelon, announced in 2025, is Saronic’s mission planning, simulation, and command-and-control (C2) platform for managing ASV fleets and integrating with Navy and joint C2 systems.
• Provides high-fidelity simulation, mission rehearsal, and real-time operational control, supporting both single-vessel and swarm deployments.
• Represents a pathway toward platform economics via software licensing, autonomy services, and potential cross-vendor C2 integration.

Manufacturing & Vertical Integration

• Controls hull design, software, manufacturing, and testing internally, enabling 90-day cycles from facility acquisition to hull construction at Gulf Craft versus traditional 5–10 year timelines.
• Applies commercial manufacturing disciplines (lean operations, first-principles design, selective additive manufacturing) to shipbuilding to target WWII-scale production speeds.
• Port Alpha is envisioned as a purpose-built autonomous shipyard that codifies these methods at hundreds-of-vessels-per-year scale.
