Mission Composer
Tasks, areas, timing, constraints and authority become a machine-readable mission picture.
AUTONOMOUS NAVY / MARITIME C2
One mission.
Many assets.
Mission, simulation and command software for coherent maritime autonomy across heterogeneous crewed and uncrewed systems.
Make heterogeneous maritime assets act as one coherent operational system.

OPERATOR-FACING C2
Plan. Rehearse. Orchestrate.
The demonstrator turns the architecture into software: mission composition, synthetic fleet simulation, fleet-state aggregation, degraded-state visualisation and deterministic event replay.

ONE CONTROL PLANE
Software for the fleet layer.
Fleet State
Asset, communications, navigation confidence and mission status are normalised into one operator view.
Simulation & Replay
Synthetic fleets, scenario injection and deterministic replay turn architecture into testable behaviour.
Decision Support
The interface surfaces the state changes that require human attention and keeps authority explicit.
04 / EUROPEAN CAPABILITY
COLLABORATIVE SYSTEM-OF-SYSTEMS
Built for federated European C2.
The integration problem is larger than any vessel. Autonomous Navy is being built around the interfaces that matter in European defence and maritime security: command-and-control integration, Federated Mission Networking, modelling and simulation, critical maritime infrastructure and heterogeneous crewed and uncrewed assets. For semi-autonomous surface-vessel programmes, that means remote monitoring and control, human-on-the-loop supervision and collaborative operation across different unmanned assets.

SELECTED TRACTION / 2021—2026
Built over time.
Visible in the record.
A continuous engineering line from a physical autonomous vessel to fleet-level mission software — with public programme, technology and security milestones along the way.
ZeroOne
Autonomy became physical.A real autonomous maritime demonstrator moved the work from architecture into launch, operation and test.
ESA BIC · iMAR
GNSS. Mission planning. Real water.Satellite navigation, perception and mission planning entered the architecture while the Schlei became a large real-world validation environment.
PartnerShip · Baltic Sea
Perception under speed.High-dynamic maritime runs pushed recognition and classification under motion and changing relative geometry.
GreenOffshoreTech · MS&D
Programme traction met tactical autonomy.European programme support advanced hydrogen and fuel-cell work while BlackBoats brought adaptable autonomous maritime systems into the security mission.
BAKS · marKRITIS
The mission became operational.Critical-infrastructure protection connected maritime autonomy with operators, security authorities and defence context.
Autonomous Navy · BayStartUP
Heterogeneous assets. One operational system.Mission composition, simulation, fleet state and operator-facing C2 become the next software layer.
06 / EVIDENCE
ALREADY ON THE MAP
New venture. Long trajectory.
The public record contains external anchors across transport research, space incubation, European innovation, maritime security and startup validation. The selected milestones above are linked to their sources; product claims and historical heritage remain separated.

Heritage
2021
ZeroOne — demonstrated maritime autonomy heritage
Historical founder experience: ZeroOne was developed through Unleash Future Boats as an autonomous maritime system. This is relevant heritage and is explicitly not presented as an Autonomous Navy product.
