Editorial summaries
Dive-LD
Anduril's Dive-LD is a large-diameter autonomous undersea vehicle and a modular-payload defense-subsea entry in DEPLOY's maritime cohort. Verified specs: up to 6,000 meters operating depth (a depth rating, not a hull dimension) and about 10-day endurance, for ISR, mine countermeasures, anti-submarine warfare, and seafloor mapping, running Anduril's Lattice autonomy. It originates in Anduril's 2022 acquisition of Dive Technologies, and its Dive-XL variant is the commercial baseline for Ghost Shark. DEPLOY records commercial maturity. It is defense procurement equipment sold on contract; there is no consumer price.
DriX
Exail's DriX is the commercial-surface entry of the maritime cohort: an autonomous surface vessel for hydrographic survey and defense mine countermeasures, running the CortiX autonomy stack (supervised autonomous navigation and obstacle avoidance, fusing camera, infrared, LiDAR, and radar across surface and underwater). It is made by Exail, the merged ECA Group and iXblue entity (France), and is dual-use across survey and defense. DEPLOY records it at the vehicle level (the DriX USV, not the Exail parent). It is sold to survey operators and navies on contract; there is no consumer price.
