Company Category At-sea focus (what they actually do) Typical platforms / assets Example work / proof points Notes
AdvanFort PMSC (armed maritime security) Embarked armed teams, escort/support vessels, floating armory Offshore support vessels; armed teams Operated the Seaman Guard Ohio floating armory; long-running counter-piracy services. Classic U.S.-based PMSC model; history shows legal/flag-state sensitivities with armories.
Constellis (Academi/Triple Canopy lineage) Large U.S. security contractor Risk mgmt + security; has offered maritime training/solutions historically Training centers, guard teams, risk advisory Constellis formed from Academi + Triple Canopy; offers “end-to-end” security incl. maritime. Big umbrella brand; maritime is a slice of a much broader portfolio.
Vectus Global (Erik Prince venture) PMC / security contractor Government support incl. air/sea mobility, drones; expeditionary security Fighters/contractors, helicopters, boats (per reporting) 2025 Haiti deal: multi-year security support using drones + planned helos/boats. Newer vehicle for Prince; scope evolving and politically controversial.
Crowley Government Services Gov’t ship operator/manager (MSC/DoD) Operates, crews, maintains U.S. gov’t prepositioning & logistics vessels MPF ships, sealift/logistics vessels (gov’t-owned) MSC award to operate & maintain six MPF vessels; gov’t vessel mgmt offering.

Sealift, Inc. (of Delaware) U.S.-flag operator for DoD Time-charter & prepositioning support; crews/operates DoD charters U.S.-flag container/ro-ro & prepositioning vessels Repeated MSC/DoD awards (e.g., M/V Capt. David I. Lyon, Army ammo prepo). Smaller than Crowley but very active with DoD contracts.
PHI Aviation Offshore aviation Marine pilot transfers (helicopter to ship), SAR, offshore energy support Ship deck landings/hoists; SAR-config helos Dedicated Marine Pilot Transfer service; broad offshore portfolio. Think “ship operations via air”—getting pilots/people to/from vessels fast.
Erik Prince (sea/air) Individual / portfolio of ventures Mix of maritime & aviation capabilities across PMCs over time Aircraft, boats (varied across ventures) Background/founder profile; current Haiti activity via Vectus. Included to separate the person from the current corporate vehicle (Vectus).
PACRIM (Pacific Rim Defense) Defense services contractor (HI) Integration/installation, logistics, experimentation; not a PMSC Systems integration; projects across the Pacific Company describes cyber/IT/engineering/logistics & integration services. Not an armed maritime security or ship-operator; more systems/engineering.
USA → interpreted as HeliService USA Offshore/harbor aviation Harbor Pilot Shuttle (helicopter pilot transfers), offshore support AW169 (and similar) helos; 24/7 harbor pilot ops New U.S. harbor-pilot helicopter ops (Sabine Bank Pilots partnership).
This is true. They weren’t and we’re regretting getting involved to this moment. These adventures cost us Constitutional government which we are only now getting back.
Worse the replacement was Fraud. They couldn’t run a bath.
Moreover “we” are tired of fighting for people who sit there and don’t fight.
Taiwan is and has been for a generation capable of defeating any Chinese incursion at sea and air , but preferred to make money. No, we won’t fight for you, as you won’t fight for yourselves.
The American government civilians are yes whores for sale who foolishly sent their soldiers abroad a generation and pocketed the profits. In doing so they lost our loyalty and earned our contempt, when Hegseth dressed them down on TV the ranks and veterans like me cheered. Hegseth knows Troops are important, not sellouts. (Frankly that could have been the Red Wedding and we would have grimly smiled. )
Now if you still want American Warriors fine;
PAY. Pay for military contractors, PAY for your own soldiers. $500-$1500 daily. PAY.
For buying our Potomac Prostitutes is over… as for the Corporations… they my dear PAY for *PMCs as bodyguards for themselves and their children… for years.
PAY. Since you love money and despise danger Share The Love.
WE are Reasonable- Love us as you love ❤️ 💰 others, we feel unloved.
… tis ancient wisdom, to use Patriotic Troops for personal profit is most unwise… so PAY. 💰
I imagine some profit sharing in TSMC isn’t a bad idea either.
*PMC is Private Military Contractor. Mercenaries are illegal, so they’re Contractors. As it happens I know some…
It’s good that Taiwan is taking an interest in its defense, because it isn’t our problem. 🇺🇸 👋🏻
Just like the Anschluss, the Sudetenland, Manchukuo, and Kuwait were never our problems.
Here - Now Pay - 💰 better value.
