Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) and HavocAI announced a strategic collaboration to integrate SAIC’s real-time, multi-domain communications backbone with HavocAI’s fully autonomous maritime fleets, significantly advancing maritime domain awareness for the U.S. Navy. The effort connects HavocAI’s scalable collaborative autonomy stack-currently powering dozens of self-organizing vessels and capable of expanding to thousands-to SAIC’s Joint Range Extension (JRE) system, which broadens the reach and interoperability of Link 16 tactical data exchange. By bringing autonomous maritime platforms onto Link 16, the partnership enables joint and allied forces, supporting key objectives of the U.S. military’s Combined Joint All Domain Command and Control (CJADC2) initiative.

“This is a significant leap forward in expanding the capability of large-scale collaborative autonomy,” said Paul Lwin, CEO and co-founder of HavocAI. “By integrating with SAIC’s proven JRE infrastructure, we’re not just connecting our autonomous vessels to existing systems-we’re fundamentally enhancing how autonomous maritime systems receive and provide real-time tactical data within joint and coalition C2 systems.” Barbara Supplee, SAIC Executive Vice President of Navy Business Group, added that integrating autonomous vessels into established C2 infrastructure “will provide warfighters with an unprecedented level of maritime domain awareness, sea denial, and sea control.”
