About Marauder
Marauder is a 180-foot autonomous surface vessel designed to carry up to 150 metric tonnes. Its mission deck accepts four 40-foot or eight 20-foot ISO containers, allowing logistics cargo, sensing equipment, communications systems and other payloads to be exchanged without redesigning the vessel.
The vessel provides approximately 5,400 nautical miles of range with a 25-tonne base load and 4,100 nautical miles at maximum payload. It cruises at 12 knots and can exceed 25 knots for shorter periods. Saronic’s autonomy, adaptive navigation and browser-based mission control connect Marauder with smaller vessels and crewed forces for distributed logistics and at-sea payload deployment.
