[Defending the Lion City] RSN's Unmanned Naval vessels

Technology today is rapidly advancing in robotics, maneuvering, autonomous navigation, communications and data links. Our Navy will be integrating more and more unmanned technology as part of the Navy of the future. Embracing such technological advancements make our Navy Smarter, Sharper and Stronger.

The Venus 16 Unmanned Surface Vessel (USV) is one of the unmanned systems currently being tested to support our maritime security operations. Designed and built locally by Singapore Technologies Electronics, the Venus 16 USV can be configured into various roles such as the conduct of patrols as part of our Navy’s layered coastal defence, or to support mine countermeasure in conducting underwater scans of the seabed, while significantly improving manpower efficiency and reducing the exposure to risk for our sailors.
