Iran says it captured Anduril Dive-LD drone
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said on September 8, 2026 that it captured a US Dive-LD uncrewed submarine at the entrance to the Strait of Hormuz. A Pentagon spokesperson said an older underwater drone had malfunctioned more than a day earlier while surveying regional waters and carried no classified sonar or radar. Anduril later confirmed the loss to The War Zone, calling Dive-LD an attritable system that had already logged thousands of hours in CENTCOM operations.
