  • The phase moves beyond lab testing to evaluations aboard naval vessels and shore facilities.
  • UDS Enterprise and UDS Fleet support the evaluated shipboard software-delivery approach.
  • The selection is an evaluation milestone and candidate path to standardization, not a fleet-wide production award.

Defense Unicorns develops UDS, an air-gap-native platform for securely packaging, deploying, monitoring and sustaining mission software across disconnected military systems. Its stack supports cloud, on-premises and tactical-edge environments used by U.S. armed services and systems integrators.
