Steller Systems is pleased to welcome David Pearson as a Principal Marine Engineer. David has extensive experience in naval submarine and surface ship design and in-service support, providing engineering design consultancy and project management in multidisciplinary teams. David is a Chartered Engineer, and is passionate about mentoring developing engineers.
David joins our growing Marine Engineering team, and will work alongside our naval architects and structural engineers supporting our clients in the surface, submarine and uncrewed vessel sectors.
Steller Systems has been awarded a contract from the Defence & Security Accelerator (DASA) to continue the development of its uncrewed maritime vessel WRAITH. This contract will build on the recent success of its scale functioning demonstrator, which was designed and built under DASA & Future Commando Force funding. Recently the demonstrator underwent in-water trials in front of customers and a number of VIPs, which provided a convincing demonstration of the platform’s unique CONOPS.
This latest contract will further de-risk some of the most innovative features of the design. Steller Systems will work closely with SeeByte, who are leaders in creating robust, reliable and innovative software solutions for autonomous maritime systems, and 10XL, innovators in large-scale 3D printing.
The Defence & Security Accelerator, part of the Ministry of Defence, finds and funds exploitable innovation to support UK defence and security. WRAITH is a highly innovative and flexible naval asset which will provide transformational capability to the Royal Navy and Future Commando Force across a broad range of key military roles.
Steller Systems has recently completed another UXV design for an innovative and forward-looking client. The team at Steller Systems has experience of approaching UXV design from all angles:
✅ Thought leadership – we have helped develop UXV roadmaps and strategies and presented peer-reviewed papers at leading industry conferences.
✅ Horizon scanning – we have researched emerging technologies that can be used in UXVs and developed blue-sky designs to inform investment decisions.
✅ Concept design – we have an extensive portfolio of surface and subsurface UXVs for a number of clients to meet specific mission requirements, as well as our own designs WRAITH, SPOOK, SPECTRE and EIDOLON.
✅ Build and rapid prototyping – we have employed innovative production techniques, used sustainable materials to minimise environmental impact through life, and conducted highly successful in-water trials.
✅ Development of UXV Launch & Recovery Systems – including cutting-edge research in collaboration with the US Navy’s NUWC.
✅ Design of vessels specifically optimised for the operation of UXVs – including our light frigate design SPARTAN, and an optionally-manned TX SHIP designed in partnership with Thales to help navies transition to unmanned operations.
Steller Systems is excited to announce the newest member of its team, Lester Talbot. Lester joins us as a Senior Naval Architect and will be working with our existing team of exceptional naval architects and marine engineers on projects in the surface ship, submarine and uncrewed vehicle domains.
Steller Systems is always keen to hear from motivated individuals who are looking for a challenge. Please contact us or visit the careers page on our website for more details.
Steller Systems is pleased to see the publication of the Integrated Review. We look forward to supporting the acceleration of our Naval forces through our WRAITH Uncrewed Vehicle for the Royal Marines and Royal Navy, our survivable, multi-role modern frigate SPARTAN for the Type 32, and our Innovative Launch and Recovery Systems to enable all our ships to be able to better launch and recover the UXVs they will need to carry, as well as our support services to upgrade and extend the current fleet.
We know there is a great export future for our national capabilities and look forward to collaborating with the Royal Navy and Marines to give them the best capability to take on the challenges of the modern world.
