Designed, built, and launched in under a year – our dual-use Marauder MUSV is officially entering on-water trials and validating a new model for modern shipbuilding. 1/3

[Saronic @Saronic]

Saronic is proud to rank #2 on the 2026 @SVDG_official NatSec100 — the annual ranking of the top 100 VC-backed companies shaping U.S. national security.

We're producing real capabilities at speed and scale. And delivering real impact on the missions that matter.

Great to see @MavrookasD back on @CNBCMorningCall as part of the #Disruptor50

$1.75B Series D. Port Alpha. Net new shipbuilding capacity. Thousands of American jobs.

Saronic is taking on the shipbuilding challenge and we're just getting started.

[Saronic @Saronic]

Saronic and @Castelion are joining forces to advance critical national security objectives at the intersection of maritime and hypersonic capabilities.

Saronic's 180-ft autonomous ship, Marauder. Castelion's hypersonic vehicles.

Together, we are delivering the future of Naval power from the Foundry to the Fleet at the speed and scale necessary to deter our adversaries.

Stay tuned.

Thanks for visiting, @RepAdamSmith! Shipbuilding is critical to America's future and @Saronic is leading the way.

[Saronic @Saronic]

We were honored to welcome @RepAdamSmith, Ranking Member of the House Armed Services Committee, back to our headquarters in Austin. We discussed strengthening America’s shipbuilding enterprise and the importance of delivering the right capabilities to the fleet faster, more efficiently, and at scale. Thank you for your continued leadership.

“It’s weird to be in your early 50s and get a terminal diagnosis, and people all of a sudden act like you’re 93 or 94 and have a lot of wisdom,” says former Sen. Ben Sasse.

The future fight isn’t manned or unmanned—it’s both, integrated and acting interchangeably.

High-end platforms that command and endure anchor the force. But wars are won by speed, iterating in real time, and scaling combat power without delay.

That’s why we are building a true high-low mix of frigates, small surface combatants, and fully integrated unmanned systems.

Paired with platforms like the new frigate and MUSVs, we’re expanding sensing, distributing targeting, and increasing fires—without locking capability into a single hull.

This is how we maintain control of the seas and project power where it matters.

Saronic’s first Mirage vessel is coming to life, and it’s already proving this is no illusion.

The future of autonomous maritime capability isn’t a mirage — it’s here.

"We're not trying to do this in America. We ARE doing this in America."

Our Co-founder and CEO @MavrookasD joined @MariaBartiromo to discuss our latest $1.75 billion funding round and our push to accelerate US shipbuilding capabilities and redefine America's maritime superiority. Hear more here: https://t.co/9bK8qAx4gw

[USW(A&S) @DoW_USW_AS]

A welcome investment in our Defense Industrial Base, accelerating our nation's shipbuilding capabilities while reinvigorating the American workforce.

[Joe Lonsdale @JTLonsdale]

Dino and his team scaled @saronic faster than any defense company to date.

He’s delivered hundreds of autonomous vessels to the US Navy, redefining naval autonomy, and the fastest-built big ships since WWII.

Now, we’re scaling. I’m proud to have helped them create the company out of @8vc Build.

Thanks to the talent and lessons around Palantir and @elonmusk and others, and leadership from men like Dino and his team, USA’s Freedom’s Forge is back.

[Saronic @Saronic]

Saronic was founded to redefine maritime superiority for the U.S. and its allies—and today we’re accelerating that mission.

We’ve closed $1.75B in Series D funding at a $9.25B valuation, led by @kleinerperkins with participation from Advent, @BessemerVP, @dfjgrowth, @BAMelevate, @8vc, @caffeinatedcap, @a16z, @eladgil, and @FTI_Global.

This milestone comes at a defining moment for global and economic security. With this funding, we’re scaling the platforms and infrastructure needed to strengthen deterrence, drive economic advantage, and secure maritime superiority for decades to come.

2 Marauders nearing completion, with a 3rd underway in just 9 months.
Speed. Execution. Scale. Repeat.

Most Americans are too busy for social media, too normal for politics, too rational to tweet. They work, raise kids, coach Little League — and never post a word about any of it.

This isn't a small minority. It's a monstrous, if silent, majority. https://t.co/GPJo2O4w06

[Saronic @Saronic]

Simple. Correct. Fast.

That’s the mental model our software team adopted in the early days of Saronic — and it shaped how we built our video streaming stack for our autonomous vessels, with Corsair today having one of the highest functioning video streaming capabilities on the water.

The team didn’t try to boil the ocean. Instead, they stabilized production and invested in the right long-term architecture. The result was lower latency, faster join times, and scalable video delivered when the customer needed it, without crushing boat bandwidth.

The Saronic team successfully completed the hull flip of our second Marauder vessel, less than three months after the first.

The hull flip is significant because it marks the completion of the ship’s primary structural build. Meanwhile, vessel three is already underway at our shipyard in Franklin, Louisiana.

This pace is no accident. It reflects a deliberate approach to shipbuilding at scale — pairing world-class shipbuilding talent with advanced manufacturing and a production system designed for speed and repeatability.

Scale isn’t a future goal. It’s happening now.
