About Quickfish
Quickfish is Seasats’ high-speed autonomous surface vessel, capable of exceeding 35 knots and cruising for more than 400 nautical miles. The trailer-launched platform is designed for rapid interception, identification and escort, complementing the smaller Lightfish's low-speed persistence.
Mission payloads can be exchanged within minutes, and the vessel can carry and launch Group 1 or Group 2 drones for aerial inspection or expanded sensing. Quickfish operates under Seasats’ common command environment, supports integration with external C2 systems and is designed for sea-state-six operation and resilience to navigation interference. It has moved beyond a concept into the company’s current platform range.
