Uncrewed Regent Seagliders Ordered For Middle East Ops
Regent won a production contract to deliver a small fleet of autonomous Squire seagliders in 2027 to a U.S. government customer operating in the Middle East. The company said the electrically powered craft will be used to detect or monitor activity below the water’s surface. The Squire operates on the water and flies close to the surface in ground effect, and Regent offers configurations for carrying maritime sensors and deploying underwater vehicles. In a separate Pacific exercise, Regent integrated a Squire with NSI’s Arowana uncrewed underwater vehicle in a live maritime scenario.
