German defence startup Stark Defence plans to launch the Vanta 24 next year, a 24-meter uncrewed surface vessel capable of carrying 50 metric tons at speeds up to 64 kph. The design responds to growing European naval demand for unmanned platforms, driven partly by increased Russian submarine activity in the Baltic and North Sea regions.

Why now: Rising Russian submarine activity and Europe's push for unmanned naval systems have put new defence startups in the spotlight.
