Sea trials have started for the HYARKS TF-100. After construction and launch, the vessel is entering its next stage of development on the water.

This phase gives the team the opportunity to assess the platform in marine conditions and use that experience to guide further engineering. It is a step toward the reliable autonomous maritime operations the TF-100 is being developed to support.

From Launch to Sea Trials

On 10 August, HYARKS brought together partners, collaborators and friends for the TF-100 launch event. The photographs shared later that month capture the people who joined us for that milestone.

The team’s recent vessel-detail update also offers a closer look at TF-100, from its structure to onboard systems integration. Sea trials carry that development work into the next phase, where testing and refinement continue.
