Vantage 25

Vantage 25 is Austal's 25-metre steel surface-vessel platform for crewed, remotely operated or autonomous maritime missions. A 25-tonne payload allowance and deck space for one twenty-foot container support modular mission equipment. Baseline navigation and surface-search radar, electro-optical and infrared sensing, and redundant satellite and VHF communications provide the core operating fit.

Diesel-mechanical propulsion delivers a listed maximum speed of 20 knots and a 10-knot cruise speed, with range stated at 1,200 nautical miles at cruise. Optional accommodation allows people aboard when a mission requires them. The operator configures autonomy mode, payload integration, command links and the safety case for each mission and vessel fit.
