US Marines to get high-speed, radar-evading electric seagliders for rescue ops
 
Regent Craft, a developer specializing in all-electric seagliders based in Rhode Island, has completed its initial contract with the U.S. Marine Corps Warfighting Lab (MCWL).

In a significant progression, the company has secured a follow-up agreement, estimated at $10 million, which offers opportunities for further extensions.
 
The initial phase of Regent’s partnership with MCWL, valued at $4.75 million, encompassed twelve key deliverables that validated the technical feasibility of seagliders.

This phase began with testing a quarter-scale prototype and culminated in the recently successful sea trials of the full-scale Viceroy prototype.
