Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance
Our oceangoing solar USV provides a flexible foundation for maritime ISR operations, supporting long-endurance missions with configurable sensor payloads. Each system can be tailored to suit mission needs — from visual surveillance and radar tracking to RF spectrum monitoring and acoustic sensing. The modular design supports single-sensor deployments for focused missions or multi-sensor fusion for comprehensive maritime domain awareness. Hanno’s low cost per unit allows for extensive ISR networks to be flexibly deployed in ways never before possible.

Visual and infrared sensing for 24/7 surface awareness. Designed for missions that require real-time visual monitoring, identification, and tracking of vessels or surface activity.
Potential configurations:
EO/IR gimbals: MWIR, LWIR, or dual-band stabilized turrets for day/night operation
Camera arrays: panoramic, low-light, or zoom-optimized cameras for wide-area or focused coverage
Edge processing modules: onboard AI for object detection, tracking, and classification
Data integration: fused overlays with AIS, radar, and GPS feeds
Common use cases: maritime domain awareness, maritime border security, smuggling interdiction, infrastructure protection, convoy overwatch.
-
Detection and tracking of cooperative and non-cooperative targets provides reliable surface picture generation even in low visibility or adverse weather.
Potential configurations
Marine radar units: compact X-band or S-band systems with selectable range and resolution
Processing modules: onboard radar tracking and target correlation with AIS and EO/IR inputs
Low-power radar options: FMCW or solid-state radars for stealth or close-range operations
MIMO or phased-array upgrades: for multi-target tracking and enhanced discrimination
Common use cases: maritime domain awareness, route and choke-point surveillance, detection of low-profile or radar-reduced vessels, force protection, and distributed ISR support..
-
Low-altitude radar detection for counter-UAS and sea-skimming missile defense. Provides early warning and cueing against aerial threats, enhancing layered protection for maritime and coastal assets.
Potential configurations
Compact 3D radar systems: X-band or Ku-band units optimized for small-object and low-RCS detection with high update rates
Elevation-capable mast or tethered sensor mounts: Increased sensor height to extend line-of-sight and improve detection of low-flight profiles
AI-based classification modules: Real-time discrimination between birds, drones, and potential threats using kinematic and return-signature analysis
High-rate track processing and cueing outputs: Low-latency interfaces to local C2, CIWS, and other layered defense systems for rapid engagement decisioning
Data fusion: Correlation with EO/IR, RF detection, and surface radar feeds to reduce false alarms and improve track confidence
Common use cases: counter-UAS surveillance, low-altitude airspace monitoring, sea-skimming missile approach warning, and short-range cueing for layered maritime defense systems.oes here
