Saildrone
The Ocean Is Contested
About
Saildrone builds wind and solar powered uncrewed surface vehicles that stay at sea for months, carrying radar, cameras, and acoustic sensors wherever the mission needs a presence. Fleets of them provide persistent maritime domain awareness, from counter-smuggling and fisheries enforcement to hydrographic survey and weather observation, at a fraction of the cost of keeping ships on station. The company works with the U.S. Navy, Coast Guard, and NOAA, and its ocean data feeds forecasting and climate research alongside defense operations.
