Defender
A Compact, Powerful, Entry-Level ROV
Precise Control for Heavier Payloads
Mission Specialist Defender was designed for demanding underwater missions. It operates at depths of up to 4,000 meters, where its seven thrusters enable it to conduct complex maneuvers and hold position despite swift currents. Defender can handle heavy sensors, manipulators, and tools—and like all members of the Mission Specialist family, shares a single intelligent network and an array of swappable components. These features make Defender easily adaptable for a variety of demanding missions, from disposing of unexploded ordinance to cleaning nets in offshore fish farms.
