nORTHERN BLUE SHIELD

1. PERSISTENT SURVEILLANCE

Continuous under-ice monitoring of the Northwest Passage. The Hybrid Autonomus Underwater Vehicule (HAUV) architecture enables months of silent operation, utilizing seabed docking nodes for indefinite endurance and secure data exfiltration 

2. ICE-CAPABLE DESIGN

Engineered for the harshest environment on Earth. The wingless lifting body eliminates snag risks on ice keels, while the 4-Liter Buoyancy Engine masters extreme Arctic density stratifications 

3. INTEGRATED MESH

Turning individual sensors into a unified shield. Assets autonomously cross-cue target data, fusing acoustic intelligence from the seabed to the surface to create an inescapable detection web 

 

Mission ready

rANGE

1,200 nautical mile autonomy. Capable of transiting the entire Northwest Passage chokepoint on a single charge. 

PAYLOAD

Open architecture sensor bay. Swappable modules for Side-Scan Sonar, Magnetic Anomaly Detection (MAD), or Passive Acoustic Arrays 

DEPLOYMENT

Man-portable form factor. Air-droppable from C-130 or deployable via 12-inch ice hole by a two-person team 

DEPTH RATING

Rated to 1,200 meters. Optimized for under-ice keel avoidance and deep-water seabed hibernation and recharge

ICE RESILIENCE

Engineered for collision  against shifting ice keels. Reinforced composite hull and snag-free hydrodynamics allow for safe autonomous navigation 

SPEED PROFILE

Variable propulsion modes: 1-knot Silent Gliding for acoustic stealth vs. 3-5 knot Sprint Mode for target interception 

 

INVISIBLE BACKBONE

The force multiplier that turns a temporary patrol into a permanent presence. Our seabed docking ecosystem provides inductive charging and secure data offload without ever breaking the surface.

Charging Hub

  • INDUCTIVE TRANSFER
  • Autonomous docking requiring zero human intervention. High-efficiency wireless power transfer allows assets to replenish batteries at depth, extending operational windows from days to years.

watch

  • PERSISTENT INFRASTRUCTURE
  • The node is not just a dock; it is a sensor. Equipped with a passive hydrophone array, it continuously monitors the seabed chokepoint while the asset is deployed elsewhere, reducing risks in the acoustic net
 

About us

ARCTIC SENTINEL is a Montreal-based defense integrator dedicated to a single imperative: securing the High North with absolute persistence. We architect and deploy unified networks of autonomous systems designed to dominate the harshest frozen environments on Earth. By fusing ruggedized hardware with intelligent sensor grids, we ensure total, continuous awareness—operating efficiently where human presence is impossible. We do not just watch the frontier; we maintain an unblinkable eye on it, guaranteeing that sovereignty is enforced every second of every day, regardless of the cold or the darkness.
