TLK-1000 / Toloka
Overview
The TLK-1000 is part of a family of unmanned underwater vehicles that scales from a compact 2.5-meter reconnaissance variant up to this 12-meter long-range platform. Unlike most drone technology emerging from the Ukrainian defense sector, this is genuinely novel undersea engineering — a category where very few nations have fielded working systems at all, let alone combat-tested ones. The vehicles have completed hundreds of real missions, including underwater minefield mapping in contested waters, and their passive sensing approach lets them operate covertly without emitting the active sonar signals that give away conventional submersibles. For coastal-defense and anti-submarine applications, this represents one of the most technically ambitious systems in the entire showcase.
