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.

notes
[{"label":"Verified","value":"Dive-LD is Anduril's large-diameter subsea AUV (from the 2022 Dive Technologies acquisition). VERIFIED delivery: the first Dive-LD was delivered to the US Navy's Unmanned Undersea Vehicle Squadron 1 (UUVRON-1 / UUV Group 1) in 2025 - a real fielded handoff to an operational Navy unit. New MODEL under the existing anduril company; wired to the lattice brain."},{"label":"CORRECTION (depth vs length)","value":"The often-cited '5.8m' is a hull LENGTH figure, conflated in some sources with depth; the actual DEPTH rating is 6,000 m. Recorded correctly."},{"label":"Maturity = commercial (fielded/early-operational)","value":"A delivered unit to a named operational Navy squadron clears the gating bar -> commercial. Quantity is single/low (not mass production). Tier above Ghost Shark on US-fielding, below it on production-contract scale."},{"label":"Claimed but NOT verified","value":"Quantity beyond the first unit; the dollar value of the Navy delivery (not disclosed); Copperhead-deployment-from-Dive integration as operational (demonstrated/claimed, not fielded); the exact 2022 Dive Technologies acquisition date (trade-press-sourced, not primary-confirmed here)."}]
