Insitu Pacific Showcases Integrator UAS, Maritime Autonomy and AI at Combined Naval Event 2026

From Insitu
FARNBOROUGH, United Kingdom — 18 May 2026 — Insitu Pacific will attend the Combined Naval Event (CNE) from 19–21 May 2026 in Farnborough, Booth F19, showcasing how the Integrator Uncrewed Aerial System (UAS), advanced payloads and mission‑ready AI deliver credible, persistent maritime domain awareness for the UK and allied navies.
“Combined Naval Event is an important forum for navies looking to move from concepts to practical, reliable uncrewed capability,” said Andrew Duggan, Managing Director, Insitu Pacific. “Insitu Pacific has deep experience integrating sovereign technologies and strengthening local supply chains, while delivering the persistence and reliability required for real maritime domain awareness.”
With more than 1.6 million operational flight hours and customers in over 35 nations, Insitu platforms have a proven track record in complex maritime environments.
At CNE, the company will focus on shipborne and shore‑based applications for the Integrator VTOL platform, highlighting how range, endurance and autonomy combine to enhance naval ISTAR and maritime security. Integrator is designed for long‑range, long‑endurance missions, supporting 13+ hours on station at 500 nautical miles – reducing the number of launches and recoveries required for effective operations. Integrator VTOL adds vertical take‑off and landing to proven fixed‑wing performance – supporting operations from naval vessels, austere shore locations and confined sites without sacrificing payload capacity or time on station.
Insitu Pacific’s participation at CNE will include Insitu’s Oxford‑based Autonomy Centre of Excellence, which is developing autonomy and practical AI behaviours tailored to maritime operations.
The company will also discuss the application of superior maritime payloads and sensors on Integrator, including advanced EO/IR, maritime radar, SIGINT, SAR and communications relay options. These modular payload configurations support a broad range of naval missions, from task group protection to the protection of critical offshore infrastructure and support to multi‑domain operations.
“Our UAS solutions are proven, interoperable and ready today for modern maritime missions,” added John Kelly, Vice President Global Growth, Insitu. “With STANAG and MOSA‑compliant systems, advanced autonomy development in Oxford, and a growing UK supply chain, we’re focused on supporting partners with capabilities that integrate seamlessly into existing fleets and coalition operations.”
