Dive-LD

Dive-LD is Anduril Industries' large-diameter autonomous undersea vehicle, originating from its 2022 acquisition of Dive Technologies, recorded in the registry as a new subsea model under the existing Anduril company and wired to the Lattice autonomy brain. It is rated to a depth of 6,000 meters with about ten days of endurance and modular payloads for missions spanning intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance, mine countermeasures, anti-submarine warfare, and seafloor mapping. The registry records it at commercial maturity reflecting a fielded, early-operational status: the first Dive-LD was delivered to the US Navy's Unmanned Undersea Vehicle Squadron 1 in 2025, a real handoff to a named operational Navy unit that clears the gating bar, though the quantity is single or low rather than mass production, placing it above Ghost Shark on US fielding but below it on production-contract scale. A specification correction is worth recording: the frequently cited 5.8-meter figure is the hull length, conflated in some sources with depth, while the actual depth rating is 6,000 meters. The quantity beyond the first unit, the dollar value of the Navy delivery, the operational status of Copperhead deployment from Dive vehicles, and the exact 2022 Dive Technologies acquisition date are not verified here.

Yes. Dive-LD is independently verified in real-world operation on the DEPLOY registry, confirmed at named deployment sites with primary sources: not a concept, render, or demo-only.

Dive-LD's recorded specifications on the DEPLOY registry: Range: 5000 km; IP rating: 6000 m depth. See the Specs section for the full sourced set.

Dive-LD is made by Anduril Industries, based in Costa Mesa, California, USA, founded in 2017.

3 verified deployments of Dive-LD are on the DEPLOY registry, including at USA, Keyport, Washington, USA (Naval Base Kitsap), Keyport, Washington.

Dive-LD is in commercial deployment and is sold to operators; contact the manufacturer to buy, and see the pricing section for any recorded price.

Dive-LD runs Anduril Lattice. Each brain assignment is verified at the registry level via primary sources.

On the DEPLOY registry, comparable underwater robots to Dive-LD include X3, EXRAY, EverClean Hull Service Robot, Ghost Shark (XL-AUV).

Dive-LD and X3 (Blueye Robotics · 5 deployments) are both underwater robots on the DEPLOY registry. Dive-LD has 3 verified deployments on record. Compare both records for specs, safety, deployments, and verified-vs-claimed autonomy.

On DEPLOY's intelligence score, which blends verified deployments, safety, adoption, media, and IP signals, Dive-LD ranks in roughly the top 6% of underwater models tracked by the registry.

Dive-LD is at the commercial stage on the DEPLOY maturity ladder (research, prototype, pilot, commercial, production). Commercial stage means production-grade deployments are operating at named customer sites.

Dive-LD has no incidents on record in the DEPLOY registry. This does not constitute a safety guarantee; it reflects the incidents DEPLOY has tracked and verified to date.

The Anduril Dive-LD is a large diameter autonomous undersea vehicle (LDUUV) with modular payloads, 10-day endurance, and 6,000m depth rating for defense and commercial use. The Dive-XL is the extra-large variant for long-range, extended-duration missions with large payload capacity.
