Enhanced Domain Awareness
When integrated with C4-ISR software such as Shift’s CiMS™ platform and a mission-configurable sensor suite, the Ranger delivers real-time ISR across contested maritime zones. Its secure, interoperable architecture ensures critical intelligence is rapidly transmitted to command elements—accelerating decision cycles and enabling precise, time-sensitive actions.
Operator-Focused, Efficient & Usable
The Ranger is built for ease of use in the field and at remote command stations, with an intuitive interface that reduces training time and operator burden. Its uncrewed design supports extended mission durations while minimizing personnel exposure and logistical overhead.
Multi-Mission Force Multiplier
The Ranger’s modular design supports rapid integration of payloads—including ROVs, UAVs, and advanced sensors—enabling it to execute ISR, interdiction, inspection, and logistics missions from a single platform. This versatility reduces asset requirements and extends mission effectiveness.

Field Control Station
The Field Control Station (FCS) is an integrated hardware solution for multi-domain autonomous platform and vehicle control (C2), with C4-ISR software-defined upgrade paths. Our integrated system hosts the CiMS™ software in the field and connects integrated hardware solutions to the CiMS™ cloud platform. The FCS provides data fusion for multiple rapidly deployable sensors, edge computing options, and IoT integrations. With the optional Advanced Communications Kit, the FCS can establish field communications for teams and provide a bandwidth-aware backlink for remote management.
