Havoc is turning autonomous vessels into an all-domain command layer

Havoc raised a 100 million dollar Series A on May 12, 2026, bringing total capital raised to roughly 200 million dollars since 2024. New investors included CCM Capital Markets, Clear Street, Cobalt Capital, Boardman Bay Capital Management, Meet Perry, Mute Ventures, Soren Ventures, SAIC, and JA Green, while Outlander VC, Scout VC, B Capital, Lockheed Martin, Taiwania Capital, UP.Partners, The Veteran Fund, and Vanderbilt University returned to the round.

The 100 Million Dollar Series A And 30 DoD Vessel Deliveries

Havoc disclosed 25,000-plus hours of autonomous testing and deployments, 200-plus billion data points from autonomous operations, 100-plus autonomous surface vessels built and deployed, and 30-plus vessels delivered to the U.S. Department of Defense. The same disclosure gives the company 40-plus mission-ready vessels, defense-prime partners including Leidos, Lockheed Martin and SAIC, and more than 200 employees across Providence, Boston, Austin, Washington, Honolulu and San Diego.

Havoc combines internal maritime production with outside vessel manufacturing capacity. Collaborations with PacMar, Senesco and additive-manufacturing partners cover vessel design, build and deployment, while the Series A financing follows two March 2026 acquisitions that added Mavrik and Teleo.

Mavrik And Teleo Cross-Domain Routing

Two corporate acquisitions finalized in March 2026 introduced unmanned aerial hardware and ground logistics control software into Havoc maritime vehicle operations. Mavrik contributes Group 1 and Group 3 unmanned aerial platforms that transmit tasking vectors, sensor telemetry and situational mission data across active surface vessels. Teleo contributes a fleet-supervision model where 1 remote operator directs multiple heavy machinery platforms across logistics, construction, mining and distributed mobility installations.

Havoc Control And Havoc OS Operator Layer

Havoc Control is the operator interface for real-time command, planning and insight across autonomous systems. Operators can plan missions, assign tasks, retrieve data, override autonomy and re-task assets during live operations through modular views built for tactical operators, theater commanders, mission planners, autonomy engineers, port-security teams and maritime logistics planners.

Havoc Cloud supplies the communications layer for unmanned fleets, connecting vessels, operators and mission data through adaptive mesh networking when command-and-control links degrade. Havoc OS runs onboard autonomy for perception, navigation, collision avoidance, dynamic path planning and swarm behavior, with integration paths into existing command-and-control systems.

Rampage Kaikoa And Atlas Hull Family

Rampage is the small autonomous surface vessel in the Havoc fleet. The all-electric vehicle has a 15-knot top speed, roughly 100 nautical mile range, 300 lb payload capacity, 750 lb maximum gross weight, Starlink beyond-line-of-sight and mesh-radio data links, beach-launch handling, 310 W solar capacity and indefinite loiter at 3 knots.

Kaikoa scales the vessel family into 20-, 30-, 36- and 42-foot hulls for fleet support. The 20-foot configuration carries a 700 lb payload, reaches 37 knots, cruises at 20 knots, ranges 225 nautical miles at cruise speed and uses twin 90 horsepower engines. The 42-foot version reaches 40 knots, carries 3,640 lb of cargo and functions as a fleet support hub for collaborative operations.

Atlas is the medium USV class for long-range, high-capacity operations. The 100-foot baseline has a 28-foot beam, roughly 90 ton displacement, 30-plus knot top speed, range up to 7,000 nautical miles at 12 knots, four TEU cargo capacity totaling 38.6 metric tons and 250 kW of onboard power upgradeable to 450 kW.

Havoc Public Record Boundary

Havoc has public record disclosures covering Series A funding, total capital raised, investor participation, founder roles, acquisitions of Mavrik and Teleo, vessel specifications, stack components, testing hours, autonomous operation data volume, vessels built and DoD delivery counts. Public material does not show delivered unit counts by individual customer, fleet availability, production cadence by vessel class, precise contract values, autonomy intervention rates or measured field performance by mission type.
