I dont see how these guys will survive with the remus 600 and 100 vehicles established.

I'd say there's some room for competition with:

- cheaper vehicles (not "crazy-expensive")

- easy to integrate/extend (modern software practices...)

- more varied domain applicability (not everyone looks for pipeline leaks/hunt mines for a living)

- fast reactivity, rather than moving at the speed of government

I'd wager cheaper/better hardware & other improvements means orgs will be able to get fewer, cheap underwater robots.
