Vanguard: The Future of Covert Tactical Propulsion

Powered by the Z-Class Propulsion System
The Vanguard demonstrates how hydrogen technology enables high-performance, mission-ready platforms without compromising on stealth or endurance. Outfitted with the Z-Class Propulsion System in place of a conventional big-block V-8 gasoline engine, the vessel achieves comparable output while delivering near-silent, low-signature operation critical for maneuvering through sensor-rich environments. This upgrade enhances range and operational flexibility beyond battery-only alternatives, supporting emerging defense priorities for low-detectability mobility at the edge of the battlefield.

The Z-Class Fuel Cell Engine

Capable, flexible, stealth propulsion
Designed to operate in environments saturated with autonomous surveillance systems—drones, sensor networks, and AI-driven threat detection—it delivers ultra-quiet, low-thermal-signature power, enabling vehicles and equipment to move undetected. Z-class is the ideal choice for special operations, reconnaissance missions, or any scenario demanding silent mobility and deep-field energy independence where exposure could mean mission failure.
