Hosted July 15–16 at the Copthorne Tara Hotel, Kensington, UNS 2025 traded defense-expo theatrics for practical integration—AUV/USV payloads, contested-spectrum comms, and human-on-the-loop control that commanders trust.
Three takeaways
- Counter-UAS goes afloat. Layered RF sensing + EO/IR + soft-kill jamming is moving aboard patrol craft and auxiliaries as modular kits.
- API-first C2. “Plug-and-fight” mattered: open interfaces for third-party autonomy stacks beat closed suites every time.
- Logistics is doctrine. Spares, batteries, and salt-proof connectors decided which demos felt deployable.
Founder takeaway: Document your LPI/LPD comms posture and publish integration docs—no API, no sale.
Dates/place:July 15–16, 2025, Kensington, London.
