The Ghost Shark is an exciting new underwater drone that has just made its first appearance in action. This extra-large autonomous undersea vehicle (XL-AUV) was showcased during the Autonomous Warrior 2024 event in Australia, where it operated completely submerged. The Royal Australian Navy (RAN) is the first to use this impressive vehicle, and its manufacturer, Anduril, is looking to sell it to other navies, including the U.S. Navy.
What Happened at Autonomous Warrior 2024?
The Australian Department of Defense released a video showing the Ghost Shark moving through the water during the Autonomous Warrior 2024 event. This event took place mainly around Jervis Bay on Australia’s eastern coast over three weeks earlier this month. In the video, you can see clips of the Ghost Shark underwater, but there’s something interesting: the top of its mast, which usually sticks up out of the water, is blurred out.
