Seasats Secures $24 Million in USV Contracts for National Security Customers
Seasats announced securing over $24 million in new orders within one month from U.S. national security customers, covering both Unmanned Surface Vessel (USV) procurement and Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) contracts. The funding reflects committed spending rather than ceiling values on contract vehicles and spans multiple government agencies including the Marine Corps and Navy. The Lightfish USVs are solar-powered vessels designed for long-endurance missions, with modular payload capabilities supporting a range of surveillance equipment. Seasats' CEO emphasized that these orders represent immediate operational needs rather than exploratory funding, highlighting growing demand across U.S. military users for persistent maritime awareness solutions at scale and over extended ranges. This significant booking marks an acceleration in the company's growth trajectory as it becomes increasingly trusted by government agencies to provide autonomous systems capable of addressing critical maritime challenges such as border protection, port security, illegal trafficking prevention, and oceanographic research.
