Saab UK has announced the delivery of its 600th Seaeye Falcon subsea vehicle produced in Fareham, UK. This specific Falcon was built for international subsea specialist DISA International. The latest addition joins DISA’s growing fleet of Saab Seaeye vehicles and contributes to DISA’s high-performance inspection and survey operations across Europe.

The newly delivered Falcon is already at work supporting offshore wind energy operations in Germany, where it is conducting balance of plant inspections and general visual inspections (GVI). The vehicle will soon be deployed to further projects in the Netherlands and Belgium, playing a key role in offshore inspections and measurement tasks.

This latest purchase brings DISA’s fleet of Saab Seaeye vehicles to eight, including the Panther XT Plus, Cougar, Lynx, and multiple Falcons.

The Falcon’s versatility extends beyond offshore wind. DISA routinely deploys its Falcons for harbor inspections, near-shore structural surveys, and RAC (Remote Area Compliance) inspections—demonstrating the vehicle’s adaptability in a variety of working environments.

Jon Robertson, Managing Director at Saab Seaeye, said: “DISA International’s decision to continue investing in the Seaeye Falcon is a testament to the trust our customers place in the reliability, performance, and flexibility of our systems. Delivering our 600th Falcon to a long-term partner like DISA International is a suitable milestone in the manufacturing of British-designed and built subsea vehicles.”

Didier De Graaff, Managing Director at DISA International, said: “The Falcon is our go-to vehicle for operations from smaller vessels. It’s compact, easy to set up, and can be launched with an onboard crane, making it ideal for rapid mobilization. Performance-wise, we’ve always been very satisfied.”

DISA International has significantly expanded its subsea vehicle capabilities over the past six years. The addition of this 600th Falcon highlights both the organization’s growth and the strong partnership between the two companies.
