Regent Craft Squire Seaglider
Regent Craft deployed its uncrewed Squire Seaglider vessel in U.S. Navy trials held in Michigan during July.

Regent Craft demonstrated an autonomous version of its Squire Seaglider as part of the Pentagon’s recent Silent Swarm exercise. The Rhode Island-based company reported on August 18 that the electric vessel was one of several uncrewed platforms participating in the Department of War program held in Michigan from July 13-24.

Tests assessed how the Squire could both use and defend against electromagnetic spectrum operations, including radar, communications, and navigation infrared and directed energy capabilities. Over the course of 13 days, the Seaglider was fitted with multiple different payloads for electronic attack, protection and warfare scenarios.
