HD Hyundai and US defense company Anduril performed a joint demonstration of autonomous unmanned surface vessel (USV) operations off Long Beach, California. The test utilized a modified 368-ton former US Navy vessel equipped with HD KSOE's VAone vessel autonomy solution and Anduril’s Lattice mission autonomy platform. Attended by military and industry representatives from South Korea and the United States, the three-and-a-half-hour demonstration tested autonomous navigation, mission changes, formation sailing, machinery failure responses, and damage control.
