Australia is developing a fleet of advanced autonomous underwater vehicles named "Ghost Sharks”. The vessels will monitor its surrounding waters and provide protection against international threats. The extra-large submarines are equipped to handle offensive operations and gather intelligence, signalling a new phase in submarine warfare.

A collaborative effort among defence scientists, Navy officials, and robotics experts is underway to produce multiple XL-AUVs intended to strengthen maritime security and surveillance.
