ROMULUS™ 7
Extend Mission Reach and Reduce Risk.
ROMULUS™ 7 is a compact, man-portable unmanned surface vessel (USV) engineered for rapid deployment and modular mission configuration.
Designed for expeditionary and special operations use, it emphasizes affordability, all-electric propulsion, and enhanced seakeeping, while offering a flexible open architecture for payloads, sensors, and communications systems. Part of the ROMULUS™ family of USVs, the 7-foot platform delivers a balanced combination of speed, endurance, and payload capacity to support distributed maritime operations. A modular deck, standardized interfaces, and integrated power and data buses enable rapid integration of mission-specific payloads, allowing operators to tailor the system to diverse mission requirements.
ROMULUS™ 7 is integrated with Odyssey™ to provide advanced perception, sensor fusion, and multi-vehicle collaborative behaviors.
HII Odyssey™ Connects REMUS and ROMULUS™, Enabling Integrated Multi-Domain Unmanned Operations.
