Australia unveils modular payloads for Ghost Shark UUV and other unmanned vessels

Australia announced modular payloads to be integrated onto Anduril’s Ghost Shark and C2 Robotics’ Speartooth unmanned underwater vehicles, plus Ocius’s Bluebottle unmanned surface vessel. The novelty is the emphasis on modular, swappable payload integration across multiple unmanned maritime platforms, potentially accelerating mission reconfiguration (ISR, EW, strike, mine warfare) without redesigning the vehicles.
