Costa Mesa-based defense company Anduril Inc. has introduced the first extra-large Ghost Shark underwater drone prototype, developed with the Royal Australian Navy.
The Ghost Shark is officially called an autonomous underwater vehicle, and is part of a $140 million military development program.
“The timeline we set to design and produce three Ghost Sharks in three years in Australia, by Australians for the ADF (Australian Defence Forces) was extremely ambitious. I am excited to report that we are ahead of schedule and, importantly for a Defence program, we are on budget,” David Goodrich, the CEO of Anduril Australia, said in a statement.
