The Vulcan brings repair, refuelling, and rearming support to ships that cannot return to a hangar. Four BARD drones, with two operating at a time from dedicated crew stations, let the support team work around another ship while the pilot holds a stable service position.

Repair, refuel, and rearm away from port

Stable positioning and four BARD drones let the Vulcan repair, refuel, or rearm another ship where the problem occurs.

Drones

The Vulcan carries four BARD drones for repair, refuelling, and rearming work, with two drones operated at a time from dedicated crew stations.

Defensive turrets

Two remote turrets give the Vulcan basic protection while the pilot holds position near a damaged or depleted ship.

Approaching the client ship on the Vulcan

The Vulcan matches movement and communication with the supported ship before bringing tools or transfer equipment close.

Vulcan's operator stations

Dedicated controls give the Vulcan's support crew a clear view of tool condition, connection, and progress.

The Vulcan's remote service team

The Vulcan carries four BARD drones and can operate two at once from dedicated support stations. The crew can deliver fuel or ammunition and carry out repairs around another ship while the pilot holds the Vulcan in a stable service position.
