2025-11-05 06:05

Anduril Industries has delivered the first Ghost Shark Extra Large Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) to the Royal Australian Navy. The vehicle, based on Anduril's DiveXL platform, is designed for cost-effective, stealthy, long-range ISR (intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance) missions. The AUV was produced at a new 80,000-square-foot facility in Sydney, Australia, and was completed ahead of schedule. The delivery follows a $1.1 billion contract awarded by the Royal Australian Navy to Anduril in September. The first low-rate production hull was unveiled at a factory launch ceremony attended by Australia's defense minister and the head of the Royal Australian Navy.
