Introducing FISHER, a modular payload for GARC that deploys the VideoRay Defender ROV into underwater threat environments so operators don't have to go in themselves. Mine countermeasures, hazard response, and subsea inspection can all be conducted from a safe standoff distance. Because FISHER is built on GARC's interchangeable payload system, the same vessel is ready for a completely different mission the moment it's needed. One platform, built to adapt to whatever comes next.

Jet Logistics is expanding into the cargo sector through a new partnership with Blue Tide Aviation, a Fort Lauderdale‑based operator that serves as a subcontractor and mission partner to BlackSea Technologies on maritime and logistics programs. The launch includes deploying Blue Tide’s C‑23 Sherpa to service Florida, the Bahamas, and the wider Caribbean, offering faster and more flexible air cargo solutions across remote islands. Jet Logistics contributes a robust Part 135 aviation platform, while Blue Tide brings expertise in special mission logistics, disaster response, and time‑critical freight. Together, the companies aim to deliver reliable cargo, passenger, and COMBI services across the region.

BlackSea Technologies has been awarded a five-year, $256 million Navy contract to build and support the Seabased Petroleum Distribution System (SPDS), a critical capability for delivering fuel from sea to shore in contested and infrastructure-limited environments.

EOS has demonstrated its R400 remote weapon system on BlackSea Technologies’ Chaser unmanned surface vessel, marking the first time the R400 has been deployed on a USV in the United States. The integration, unveiled at Sea‑Air‑Space 2026, brings together satellite‑based remote operation, maritime integration, and autonomous deployment in a single working system. The rapid adaptation of the R400 to Chaser highlights its flexibility and shows how quickly new capabilities can be fielded across autonomous platforms. The demo also opens a new path for engagement with U.S. Navy stakeholders as interest in armed and multi‑domain unmanned systems continues to grow.

BlackSea Technologies will unveil two new small Unmanned Surface Vessels (sUSV), Chaser and Comet, at Sea-Air-Space 2026, the Navy League of the United States’ global maritime exposition, held April 19 to 22 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland. The event is widely recognized as the premier maritime exposition in the United States, bringing together defense industry leaders and senior military decision makers from around the world. Both new vessels will be displayed at the waterside exhibition pier.  

ANELLO Photonics, the creator of the Silicon Photonics Optical Gyroscope (SiPhOG™) and a leader in solid-state, high-precision inertial navigation systems, and BlackSea Technologies (blacksea.tech), a developer of advanced autonomous maritime systems, today announced that the ANELLO Maritime Inertial Navigation System (INS), following successful demonstration on the GARC platform, has been selected and designed into BlackSea Technologies’ Chaser autonomous surface vessel.

BlackSea Technologies marked a major milestone in the development of its NightTrain autonomous logistics vessel with a keel-laying ceremony in Baltimore. Designed to deliver containerized cargo over long distances in contested environments, NightTrain represents a new approach to sustaining forward forces without reliance on traditional ports or infrastructure.

BlackSea Technologies announced it has been awarded a contract under the Missile Defense Agency’s Scalable Homeland Innovative Enterprise Layered Defense (SHIELD) indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) program. The contract supports rapid delivery of innovative capabilities to the warfighter and reflects the Department of War’s focus on speed, agility, and scalable solutions.
