Piracy is increasingly threatening vital sea lines of communication and commerce. Many counter piracy operations are supported by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), providing maritime surveillance and detecting suspicious activity. UAVs cannot effectively cover vast areas of ocean and long missions are also impacted by the operators’ ability to detect small targets and remain vigilant.
Kestrel Maritime detects small targets in real time enabling missions to cover wide areas more effectively. By automating detection it ensures that the operator remains vigilant, making it harder for pirates to be missed.
Kestrel Maritime greatly enhances the effectiveness of counter piracy operations.
