Voyager Fleet Counternarcotics Task Order
$16.3M Navy task order extending Saildrone's Voyager USV fleet counternarcotics operations in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific.
The U.S. Navy awarded Saildrone a $16.3 million task order to extend operations of its Voyager fleet of uncrewed surface vehicles in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific for counternarcotics missions. Saildrone's USVs have worked in coordination with the U.S. Navy since 2023, supporting the Joint Interagency Task Force South and U.S. Naval Forces Southern Command; a Saildrone Voyager USV recently aided in the seizure of $81 million worth of cocaine. This is distinct from Saildrone's existing Coast Guard Blanket Purchase Agreement (contract:saildrone-uscg-bpa-2025, a different customer and broader maritime-domain-awareness mission) and its Navy seabed-mapping IDIQ (contract:navy-pacific-indian-ocean-seabed-mapping-idiq-2026, a different Navy mission entirely).
