rough seas
Already big waves, the crests of which break and leave areas of foam up to 100 m
wave height can be up to 6 meters.

For people who aren't inclined (like mua), what does sea state 5 mean exactly ?
A brief review of sea states; the ship is large so effects are not visible;


For a small boat;


And in general comparison in terms of maximum likely wave to be observed;

This used to be Orkan, changed a lot indeed.
Wonder where they have got the funds to go for rather a plain design.
Do you have any favorite among the USVs as a professional working in the industry?
Or all designs are more or less similar?

Sancar is my favourite so far.

They are similar because they are made to fulfill similar requests by SSB & TN.

There are 3 phases of the project and different requirements to fulfill in each so we will see different solutions as a decision is reached after TN's trials.

ULAQ Sida is to have TÜMOSAN manufactured marine engines propelling it through to 70km/hr speeds. With up to 400km range, the unmanned sea vehicles will be a major game changer in our seas as well as, being launched from other bigger platforms, anywhere in the seas where those platforms sail.
It is good that we are confident in using our diesel power plants on our sea platforms. Hopefully this will pave the way to bigger and more powerful indigenous engines being used on our larger platforms.

From someone who knows nothing about these sorts of things, is it possible to jam communications completely. Like can a system be deployed and make all remote controlled devices inoperable?

As it is almost impossible to crack the security codes of communication transmissions, NO! If it were possible, then there would be no Link-16, IFF, Peace Eagles, Predator Drones, Loyal Wingman etc etc.

Intercepting the signals is damn near impossible, as it is encrypted. But you could degrade the transmissions using EW equipment designed for it.
Of course those equipment do their work with a MASSIVE target painted on their back, exposing their location and the emissions they use as they do their job.
