Partner With Us

Combining specialist technologies to address complex challenges in the underwater battlespace The most demanding underwater defence requirements increasingly depend on capabilities that extend beyond any single technology, platform or supplier. General Oceans works with defence primes, technology companies and military partners to combine specialist underwater technologies, domain expertise and complementary capabilities into integrated solutions.

Across the Group, we bring deep expertise in underwater acoustics, imaging and navigation; underwater robotics and intervention; persistent ocean sensing; autonomous systems; and ocean intelligence. Working with partners whose capabilities complement our own, we can accelerate the development and delivery of new solutions for complex requirements across the underwater battlespace.

Subsea Navigation

General Oceans provides subsea navigation capabilities for defense teams operating unmanned and crewed systems in complex underwater environments. Across the group, expertise in acoustic navigation, inertial support, vehicle integration and custom engineering helps platforms operate where GPS, visibility and communications may be limited. These capabilities support AUV, ROV, USV and specialist underwater systems used in maritime defense, inspection and mission-support applications.

Sonar Imaging

General Oceans delivers sonar imaging capabilities that help defense and maritime security teams detect, inspect and understand underwater environments. The group brings together expertise in seabed imaging, forward-looking sonar, multibeam imaging, transducer design and vehicle-integrated sonar systems. These capabilities support applications such as subsea survey, target verification, obstacle awareness, infrastructure inspection and unmanned maritime operations.

Robotics

General Oceans provides underwater robotics capabilities for defense customers who need to extend human reach, dexterity and decision-making below the surface. The group supports portable robotic vehicles, hybrid ROV/AUV concepts, electric manipulation, payload integration and custom mission-specific engineering. These capabilities help teams conduct underwater inspection, intervention, reconnaissance and support tasks in environments that may be hazardous, remote or difficult to access.

Gliders and Floats

General Oceans supports sustained ocean observation through autonomous glider and float capabilities designed for long-duration maritime missions. Across the group, expertise in profiling vehicles, flexible deployment, payload integration and ocean data collection helps defense teams monitor changing underwater conditions over time and distance. These capabilities support environmental awareness, operational planning, maritime domain awareness and persistent observation in complex ocean environments.
