UNCREWED SURFACE SUBSURFACE VESSEL

K4 MANTA is a unique, innovative, scalable, low-signature, all-electric foiling USSV platform capable of rapid uncrewed surface transit of sensor or strike payloads over large distances, before submerging for covert infiltration, persistent recce or loitering roles. K4 MANTA variants are being developed in a range of sizes from the 8ft kinetic platform to the highly versatile 36ft and 54ft multi-purpose versions capable of substantial modular payload carriage.
