SAIC and HavocAI Partner to Link Autonomous Fleets to Global Command and Control Infrastructure for U.S. Navy

Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) and HavocAI announced an initiative to integrate SAIC's real-time communications systems with HavocAI's autonomous fleets. This collaboration aims to enhance Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) within the U.S. Navy's unified warfighting network.

The integration will connect HavocAI's autonomous vessels, which can operate in self-organizing teams, to a broader command and control infrastructure through SAIC's Joint Range Extension (JRE) system. This extension enables U.S. armed forces and allies to collect and share extensive tactical data in real-time, facilitating quicker decision-making.

Linking maritime systems equipped with HavocAI's technology to JRE will allow the interconnection of diverse fleets of sensors, platforms, and command systems. This setup fulfills objectives of the U.S. military's Combined Joint All Domain Command and Control initiative, promoting efficient communication and real-time data sharing among military services.

Paul Lwin, CEO of HavocAI, emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating, “By integrating with SAIC's proven JRE infrastructure, we are fundamentally enhancing how autonomous maritime systems receive and provide real-time tactical data within joint and coalition C2 systems.” Barbara Supplee, Executive Vice President of SAIC Navy Business Group, noted that the partnership will add immediate operational value and influence future maritime operations for the Navy.

The integration is set for demonstrations, showcasing HavocAI's fleet's ability to deliver Real-Time Situational Awareness (RTSA) data, supporting the Navy’s objectives for hybrid fleet operations.
