.@thejointstaff Chairman Gen. Dan Caine: “We’ve got defense CEOs, tech pioneers, capital allocators, investors, military officers—and the way I think about this is the three amigos of America’s defense: funders, founders, and fighters. And you got to have all three to drive America’s combat capability.”

Bravo, @Saronic. The Corsair’s role in the Middle East is another glimpse into the future of warfare. AI and autonomous systems are changing the battlefield, and America must lead that transformation — not follow it. Peace is secured through strength, and strength demands relentless innovation.

The team at @Saronic is having quite the summer.

[U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM]

Yesterday, using multiple one-way attack surface drones, CENTCOM forces successfully struck a submarine and ship maintenance facility in Iran. Three Corsair unmanned surface vessels hit the port at Bandar Abbas Naval Base, marking the first time American forces have employed sea drones in combat operations. Last night’s strikes degraded Iran’s ability to continue attacking commercial shipping.

To mark America's 250th anniversary, we deployed Corsair through U.S. waterways, past harbors, rivers, and coastlines that tell the story of how these waters have shaped this country's security and prosperity.

For 250 years, the seas have underwritten American freedom. Up to 80% of the world's traded goods still move by water. The next 250 years will demand new solutions to protect that.

At Saronic, we're building the autonomous fleets that will help secure free trade, protect peace and preserve the freedom to operate on the world's most important waters, for generations to come.

There's nothing wrong in principle with taking a scythe to the ranks of flag/senior officers. George Marshall did the same before WW2. But forcing General Chris Donahue's retirement would be a serious misfire of any such effort--and it's not too late to reverse course. 1/11

We found another surreal place on our way. I know some people will say I’m too positive about everything I see, but this place was crazy. They had a shooting range in the store.

The U.S. military confirmed that a Saronic Corsair was used in the first-of-its-kind rescue operation following the downing of a U.S. Army helicopter.

At Saronic, we build autonomous vessels to extend capability into the most demanding and dangerous environments. Knowing Corsair could play a role in helping bring our service members home safely is exactly why we build.

Proud to support the men and women of the U.S. armed forces — and grateful to the team that made it possible. 🇺🇸

[Jay Kramer @jay_kramer]

Pretty incredible moment for @Saronic. Their Corsair USV showing up when it mattered most is just awesome. Huge win for @MavrookasD and team -- and a glimpse of where maritime autonomy is headed.

[OSINTdefender @sentdefender]

According to the Washington Post’s @DanLamothe, the U.S. Navy drone that aided in the rescue of two U.S. Apache helicopter crew members was a Saronic Technologies Corsair unmanned surface vessel (USV). First deployed in the U.S. Central Command AOR in March of this year, the USV reportedly picked up the two soldiers and then took them to a secondary location where a waiting helicopter hoisted them up. Such a rescue would be the first time that such a system was used in this role.

Within hours of being announced as the nominee to be the U.S. Director of the CIA, I received a hand-delivered message on MI6 stationery congratulating me on my nomination. It was signed simply "C" in green ink. Legendary. I shared it with my son and even he thought I was now cool!

More than that, this note, from Sir Alex Younger, Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service of the United Kingdom, confirmed what I already believed: the work that the CIA and MI6 did together mattered, that the partnership was critical, and that two leaders focused on the mission could save lives and provide tools for our nations to deter our adversaries.

Alex's passing this week brought back so many memories of our time in service together. He flew to Langley to see me the day I was confirmed. We brought our two senior teams together in the UK to plan and coordinate and build in the first several weeks of my time on duty: making clear to them all that this relationship was more than special - it was critical for the security of our two countries.

Alex was a remarkable intelligence partner. When we needed help, it wasn't "let me see;" it was "this matters to you and America we'll get it done." And he and his team always did. I think he knew we would do the same for him and his team and his nation. Many Americans are alive today because of his leadership of MI6, I never knew how to thank him enough.

Alex became a friend as well. In the years since we both left office we would see each other from time to time. He was always so kind, so thoughtful, so smart. His deep love of his country was surpassed only by his deep commitment and love of his family. Decent and proper - and funny as hell - Alex was "C." As espionage requires, he was quiet, not attention seeking. He knew what evil was and he was ruthless in his efforts to crush it with every legal tool at his command. And he knew who his friends were and committed himself to supporting them.

I miss Sir Alex Younger. He was a role model for me and a man with whom every minute I spent was valued and savored. Blessings to you Alex. Praying for you and for your family. Well done and may you rest in peace in His hands.

On the evening of June 6, 1944, as the guns were still firing over Normandy, President Franklin Roosevelt sat before a radio and asked a waiting nation to bow its head.

His words were a prayer released across the nation so that every American could recite it alongside him:

"Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our Nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity. Some will never return. Embrace these, Father, and receive them, Thy heroic servants, into Thy kingdom."

May their sacrifice never be forgotten. 🇺🇸
