About Speartooth LUUV
Speartooth is a large autonomous underwater vehicle built around a modular internal payload area and a compact logistics footprint. The platform supports surveillance, seabed operations, payload delivery and other long-range missions through configurable sensors, communications and mission equipment.
C2 Robotics designed Speartooth for rapid manufacture, transport and deployment with limited supporting infrastructure. Its autonomy executes underwater navigation and mission plans while preserving remote oversight where communications permit. The system is entering defence procurement and fleet-development programmes in Australia.
