Many maritime operators already have vessels, crews, facilities and support structures in place. The challenge is introducing autonomous capability without forcing a full fleet replacement programme.
HUDOR focuses on conversion rather than new-build procurement, helping customers extend reach, reduce personnel exposure and introduce autonomy around platforms already familiar to the operator.
HUDOR integrates autonomy, operational control and mission payloads into suitable existing vessels, allowing maritime capability to be adapted without replacing the platform beneath it.
Supports the use of in-service vessels, helping retain familiar platforms, maintenance pathways and support structures.
Enables crewed, remote, autonomous or hybrid operation depending on mission requirement and operational maturity.
Allows vessels to be configured around surveillance, security, inspection, protection and support roles.
Supports persistent presence in higher-risk or repetitive maritime environments while keeping operators at a safer distance.
HUDOR allows maritime operators to adopt autonomy in stages. A vessel can remain crewed, operate remotely, or move towards autonomous mission execution depending on the requirement, environment and level of control needed.
HUDOR can support maritime missions where reach, endurance and reduced personnel exposure are operationally valuable, including maritime ISTAR, port and coastal security, border protection, route inspection, search and rescue, fleet protection and high-risk mission support.
HUDOR sits within Milanion’s wider maritime capability approach, supporting vessel conversion, persistent presence, reduced personnel exposure and operational endurance.
