1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000 2 00:00:06,869 --> 00:00:09,189 The future of United States naval 3 00:00:09,189 --> 00:00:12,619 defense includes unmanned and hybrid 4 00:00:12,619 --> 00:00:16,579 fleets . Aquatic vessels capable 5 00:00:16,579 --> 00:00:19,959 of sailing the seas independently from 6 00:00:19,959 --> 00:00:21,739 physical human presence . 7 00:00:30,479 --> 00:00:32,520 Nywick Atlantic's unmanned naval 8 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:36,299 innovation team . Launch an 9 00:00:36,299 --> 00:00:38,770 unmanned surface vessel engineered to 10 00:00:38,770 --> 00:00:41,470 demonstrate how far autonomous 11 00:00:41,470 --> 00:00:44,509 technology can push the future of naval 12 00:00:44,509 --> 00:00:48,349 operations . Launching 13 00:00:48,349 --> 00:00:50,682 from Sullivan's Island , South Carolina , 14 00:00:50,750 --> 00:00:53,549 it began a bold attempt to complete the 15 00:00:53,549 --> 00:00:55,869 fastest autonomous crossing of the 16 00:00:55,869 --> 00:00:58,590 Atlantic Ocean . The sensor suite 17 00:00:58,590 --> 00:01:00,750 tracked sea conditions , detected 18 00:01:00,750 --> 00:01:03,549 obstacles , and navigated between 19 00:01:03,549 --> 00:01:06,334 preset waypoints , analyzing . Data , 20 00:01:06,614 --> 00:01:09,294 adjusting propulsion and optimizing 21 00:01:09,294 --> 00:01:11,735 energy while sailing the sea shows how 22 00:01:11,735 --> 00:01:15,275 advanced the vessel is . Engineers from 23 00:01:15,275 --> 00:01:18,074 unit monitored the USV through a steady 24 00:01:18,074 --> 00:01:20,294 stream of telemetry system health 25 00:01:20,294 --> 00:01:22,894 reports , live navigation data , and 26 00:01:22,894 --> 00:01:23,875 camera feeds . 27 00:01:27,449 --> 00:01:30,489 Engineers were mostly hands off , while 28 00:01:30,489 --> 00:01:33,290 the USB navigated the ocean for more 29 00:01:33,290 --> 00:01:36,889 than 60 days and crossed nearly 4000 30 00:01:36,889 --> 00:01:39,889 miles . It maintained reliable 31 00:01:39,889 --> 00:01:42,489 long-range connectivity , allowing the 32 00:01:42,489 --> 00:01:44,029 team to change . Areas of 33 00:01:44,029 --> 00:01:47,019 responsibility of command and control 34 00:01:47,300 --> 00:01:50,300 among various naval fleets twice a day . 35 00:01:50,559 --> 00:01:52,680 This changeover would occur every 36 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,559 morning and every evening , 37 00:01:54,839 --> 00:01:57,959 demonstrating a follow the sun command 38 00:01:57,959 --> 00:01:59,379 and control approach . 39 00:02:08,809 --> 00:02:11,419 Every mile of this journey challenged 40 00:02:11,419 --> 00:02:14,820 the vessel's engineering . The sealed 41 00:02:14,820 --> 00:02:17,279 electronics resisted corrosion . 42 00:02:17,820 --> 00:02:20,410 Control algorithms responded to 43 00:02:20,410 --> 00:02:24,029 changing sea states . It's autonomous 44 00:02:24,029 --> 00:02:27,169 logic recalibrated continuously 45 00:02:27,830 --> 00:02:31,770 until on September 9 , 2025 , 46 00:02:32,110 --> 00:02:33,929 it reached Troya , Portugal . 47 00:02:34,679 --> 00:02:37,759 Completing the crossing 12 days faster 48 00:02:37,759 --> 00:02:40,210 than any previous unmanned record . 49 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,899 This achievement reshapes the future of 50 00:02:42,899 --> 00:02:45,919 United States naval operations . Long 51 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,880 endurance USVs can extend battle space 52 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,990 awareness and reduce risk to sailors , 53 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,679 fundamentally changing reconnaissance 54 00:02:54,679 --> 00:02:57,360 and surveillance in the maritime domain . 55 00:02:58,070 --> 00:03:00,119 Through continuous connectivity and 56 00:03:00,119 --> 00:03:02,960 data collection , this USV proves the 57 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,720 concept of seeing over the horizon to 58 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,679 monitor critical waterways for days on 59 00:03:08,679 --> 00:03:12,160 end . A task that would previously have 60 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,820 consumed immense manpower and resources . 61 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,800 Nywick Atlantic is turning the tyranny 62 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,179 of distance into a tactical advantage . 63 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,020 This USB monitored by unit crossed the 64 00:03:27,020 --> 00:03:30,440 ocean with no crew , no pauses , 65 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,320 and no limits .
