Past event: Unmanned Maritime Systems Technology USA 2025 Conference

The Leading Forum for Military Education and Training on Unmanned Maritime System Programs

Secure your place at the 4th annual Unmanned Maritime Systems Technology USA Conference, taking place in Arlington, VA, from September 15 to 17, 2025.

As North America's leading conference for the unmanned maritime systems community, this is your opportunity to help lead the way on integrating unmanned assets into the US Navy.

Key topics to be discussed include:

  • Unmanned Surface Vessels
  • Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
  • Unmanned Underwater Vehicles
  • AI & Autonomy
  • System Testing & Integration
  • Acquisition Timelines
  • Industry & Military Collaboration
Don't miss out - this is only your chance to attend an event with exclusive unmanned maritime focus. You'll benefit from the representation you would expect at a trade show but with networking opportunities exclusive to an intimate gathering.

Brand new for 2025: Collaborative Autonomy Focus Day!

Following 2024's USV focus day, Sep 15 at the 2025 event will focus exclusively on collaborative maritime autonomy. Topics covered will include:
  • Leveraging aerial, surface & sub surface systems within a joint operating picture
  • C2 requirements to simultaneously operate multiple autonomous systems and swarms
  • Enhancing lehtality via the introduction of systems including loitering munitions
  • The role of artificial intelligence in increasing operational effectiveness

Discover how your solutions might align with the US Navy's current and future operational requirements!

With uncrewed systems protected from Pentagon budget cuts & the 'Hellscape Concept' growing in focus, the Maritime UxS market is a huge opportunity for industry to support the US warfighter. Rather than digging through pages of RFIs/ RFPs in the hope your solutions might match listed requirements, this conference is your chance to meet everyone you need to, across 3 days, in one space.


Great event and I appreciate being a part of the team for this event. Was beneficial to me (new contacts and conversations with those uneducated on Silvus capabilities.
