With a successful AI demonstration, ontology testing, and validation of critical communications, telemetry and mission workflows on 2026-08-05, Fawkes 5 represents continued progress on SkyWeaver as we advance AI-enabled capabilities in the stratosphere.
Sovereign Mission Autonomy at the Edge | Ondas Sentinel at AIPCon 11.
@Ryan_M_Hartman shares an update how SovereignAI is driving business integration, efficiency, and speed of execution at Ondas. He also shares an update on Skyweaver, and our Agentic AI solutions at the edge, advancing platform autonomy to mission autonomy to support enhanced intelligence and the quality and speed of decision making for critical security missions. $ONDS

Sovereignty is the new alpha. @Ryan_M_Hartman, President & CEO of Ondas Sentinel, shows how $2.2 billion and 16 acquisitions in twelve months built a full-stack autonomy portfolio: from ground robotics to stratospheric balloons, counter-UAS to effectors. On Ontology, Foundry, and AIP, Ondas owns the whole stack: hardware, software, data, and open-weight models. The payoff: mission signal that compounds with every operation, and alpha that grows with every dataset created in the most contested, disconnected places on earth.

There is a difference between training an operator and putting a mission-ready aircraft in a customer’s hands. Our new @OndasHoldings facility at NAAMCE in Springfield, Ohio, is built to close that gap, bringing ground school, simulation, mission planning and flight operations under one roof.
A great discussion on unmanned systems intersected with autonomy to create a perspective that allows our customers to decide faster and act with purpose.

We were proud to support NASA and Future Engineers on the TechRise 5 launch, giving student-designed experiments the opportunity to fly to the stratosphere and inspire the next generation of STEM leaders. Congratulations to all the student teams whose innovations took flight!
🚀 Student projects take flight! 🎈
On July 1, 25 middle & high school experiments launched aboard a @worldviewspace high-altitude balloon as part of the fifth @NASA TechRise Student Challenge.
Check it out & pre-register now for next year’s challenge! ���✨

Today marked a new chapter for World View as we joined forces with DZYNE under Ondas Sentinel to deliver interconnected, multi-domain intelligence - from data to decision, across every domain. One team, complementary strengths, a shared mission.

Our altitude-control platforms can quickly change altitude to access favorable four-directional stratospheric winds that allow the system to maintain station over an area of interest. For customers, that translates into continuous awareness, adaptable positioning & reliable data.
Ondas’ @WorldViewSpace has been selected by U.S. Naval Forces SOUTHCOM / U.S. 4th Fleet and SMX as the high-altitude balloon provider for a $4.8M, 3‑month Maritime Domain Awareness mission in the SOUTHCOM AOR, supporting counter-narcotics and IUU fishing operations with stratospheric ISR coverage. $ONDS

Leveraging stratospheric wind layers at different altitudes, our systems can ascend or descend to access directional currents to maintain position or navigate. Our stationkeeping capabilities enable extended presence over areas of interest, delivering continuous intelligence.
We’re excited to announce that World View will be exhibiting in two locations at SOF Week this year!
TCC: Our Phoenix System and stratospheric platforms. Booth #324
Outpost: Static display alongside our UAV and sensor partners.
Booth #SD 13

Today, @WorldViewSpace CEO Ryan Hartman highlights, SkyWeaver, our mission autonomy platform jointly developed with @Palantir. SkyWeaver leverages adaptive Agentic AI to enable Mission Autonomy, the next defining layer of Defense ISR.

@Bwolf_Invests@OndasHoldings Best use cases are for tactical communications and ISR payloads, like full-motion video via the onboard electro-optical sensor.
Last week we launched Fawkes 4 A&B, a side-by-side R&D flight, to test advanced material developments that will continue to strengthen the system.
The Phoenix system:
Deploy with 2+ ops
Operates up to 75k ft
720 mi range
Multiple payload configs
Built on reusable hardware
@JayKatzby@OndasHoldings Due to their very low heat signature, high-altitude balloons are very difficult–and subsequently very expensive–to target. The cost of the munitions required to eventually disable the Stratollite far outweighs the cost of the Stratollite itself.
@Bwolf_Invests@OndasHoldings Phoenix system flights last around six hours, as they use a much smaller balloon and do not offer altitude control for remote-navigation. Our Gryphon system, delivers long duration and altitude control but with a much larger balloon and launch operation.
