Live Executive Briefing

The End of Single-Source: Maritime Intelligence for a Domain Going Dark

On day one of Operation Epic Fury, over 1,100 vessels were hit by GPS and AIS interference. In a single 24-hour window, 267 AIS-dark events were recorded. In ten days, Iranian crude exports to Asia more than halved. Since the Iran war began on February 28, the Gulf has averaged more than 100 dark events every single day.

Behind those numbers, Iranian VLCCs are loading dark off Kharg Island. Tankers switching off AIS in the Strait of Malacca. Stateless ships reflagging mid-voyage. None of it is visible to AIS alone.

Single-source tracking no longer captures the full picture. Fusing satellite imagery, RF, and behavioral analytics does.

Windward and Vantor are coming together for a live executive briefing to take apart trade flow disruptions, the dark fleet patterns surfaced across the Gulf and beyond, and what space-based intelligence reveals when vessels disable AIS, with live Q&A to follow.
