"At 24 feet, Corsair is the largest ASV in Saronic’s line of autonomous systems," says the company in a post on Medium. "Corsair is designed to meet the urgent operational requirements of the U.S. Navy and its allies, to deter adversaries, and serve as a force multiplier."

The ship can operate autonomously over a range of 1,000 nautical miles, has a payload capacity of 1,000 lb (454 kg) and can reach speeds of over 35 knots (40 mph). Each Corsair can operate on its own, or it can work together with more of its kind to function as a swarm. "Corsair can support a wide range of strategic blue-water operations," says the company, "from maritime domain awareness to delivery of kinetic and non-kinetic effects – extending naval power while keeping sailors out of harm's way."
