Seagull is a relatively small and fast boat. The length of the drone is 12 m, the speed of movement is up to 32 knots. The device can carry up to 2.5 tons of payload, the autonomy of navigation reaches 4 days. The range of radio communication is up to 100 km, subject to line of sight, while the operator will be able to simultaneously control two unmanned boats.

According to the developers, the Seagull kit should consist of two unmanned boats, one of which will be equipped with a system of sensors, sonars and radars, as well as weapons systems, and the second with reconnaissance robots. If a threat is detected, the second boat will have to confirm it, after which the operator or the artificial intelligence of the computer program will give the first boat a command to destroy it.
