Speed. Maneuverability. Autonomy.
This is the future of boating in regards to policing, anti-piracy, and other law enforcement applications. Able to carry a four man crew, or none at all, this state-of-the-art craft carries a one-tonne payload and can operate entirely unmanned. When designing and creating unmanned crafts, whether its autos or boats, there are considerable obstacles to overcome. But the new Vector V40S puts everything to shame with otherworldly maneuverability coupled with its ability to surpass 100MPH on the water.
When the applications demand a presence on the water in dangerous circumstances, the Vector V40S is the go-to boat for reconnaissance and the like. With little to no possible casualties it’s safe to say we’ll be seeing many more of these out on the water in the future.
