Veteran-founded AUKUS defence technology company GaardTech has announced its expansion into the littoral domain with a new Jaeger Omega uncrewed vehicle for sea warfare.

GaardTech has previously opened a new 500-square-metre deep workspace in South Brisbane, purpose-built for focused software, embedded, artificial intelligence and computer science work earlier this month.

“Jaeger-Omega is launched; literally into the littoral zone ready to execute its mission,” GaardTech founder and chief executive Steen Bisgaard said.

 
 

“This product signifies a clear message, GaardTech is a multi-domain full stack robotics company, building sovereign combat systems across AUKUS and its allies.

“I am extremely proud of the GT team’s resolve to build this whilst supporting our global customer base. Not an easy task, but one executed very well.”

The company has previously trialled it’s Jaeger uncrewed ground vehicles at Australian Defence Force training events, such as Exercise Black Prince 3.

“GaardTech has launched Jaeger Omega: a lethal, release-and-forget robotic system for the maritime and littoral domain; the mirror of Jaeger-Alpha at sea. During a test and evaluation event this week,” said a public statement from GaardTech.

“Our own hardware and software; a sovereign tech stack for AUKUS and allied nations, built for hard conditions, combat and mass production. Comms or no comms, Omega completes the mission with its independent capabilities.

“Land first, now littoral, with GaardTech’s common architecture.”
