KONGSBERG and Oceaneering International, Inc. (OCEANEERING) (NYSE:OII) today announced their selection by the U.S. Department of War’s Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) to support the Combat Autonomous Maritime Platform (CAMP) program, focused on the development of an Extra-Large Uncrewed Undersea Vehicle (XLUUV) for future U.S. Navy missions.

The CAMP program accelerates the transition of mature commercial and defense technologies into operational naval capabilities. This collaboration will focus on concept definition, system architecture, and design trade studies, emphasizing modularity, interoperability, and rapid integration.

Mission-ready

Being selected by DIU for the CAMP program underscores the confidence placed in our proven, mission-ready technology according to Rich Patterson, Vice President of Uncrewed Platforms. “KONGSBERG is proud to co-lead this effort with OCEANEERING, combining deep domain expertise to support the U.S. Navy’s vision for scalable and adaptable uncrewed undersea platforms. Together, we are competing to deliver the world’s leading extra-large autonomous underwater vehicle, and I believe our partnership with OCEANEERING is a key strength in achieving that goal,” Patterson says.
