Insitu’s ScanEagle and Integrator UAS Selected by US Navy to Deliver Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) Services with Advanced AI-Assisted Payloads
BINGEN, Washington, May 4, 2026 – Insitu, a Boeing Company, has been selected to provide ISR support services to the United States Navy (USN), United States Marine Corps (USMC) and other United States Government (USG) customers as directed, under a Contractor-Owned, Contractor-Operated (COCO) model. Insitu will compete with other selected partners for task orders with both ScanEagle and Integrator UAS, offering these customers unparalleled flexibility in capability, range, endurance, and operational profiles.
“We have been providing ISR services to the USN since 2005 and the USMC since 2004 and are honored to be selected to bring our enhanced versions of ScanEagle and Integrator with updated autonomy and resilience capabilities to bear,” said Diane Rose, Insitu CEO. “The choice between two platforms offers our important USG customers the ultimate Mission flexibility. We’ve incorporated our 20+ years’ experience working with the Navy and Marines
into the feature sets on our UAS to ensure they offer the most robust maritime operational capability for their unique ISR needs.”
Both ScanEagle and Integrator platforms offer FLARES no-sacrifice VTOL and extended-range SATCOM capabilities, enabling light-footprint operations with truly persistent ISR missions lasting up to 27.5 hours (Integrator), and 18+ hours (ScanEagle). Integrator can travel up to 2,000 nm (point to point) or spend 13 hours on station at 500 nm performing ISR missions before returning to refuel. Insitu UAS have operated from over 45 ship classes and land sites on 6 continents.
Insitu UAS are maintained and operated by a team of deeply experienced, award-winning field services representatives (FSRs) who have decades of experience deploying with the US Navy, US Coast Guard, and US Marine Corps, as well as customers from 35+ international militaries. Insitu’s FSR teams have been praised as seamlessly integrating into deployments and rising above and beyond the call to support the US warfighter.
“Our FSR’s are proud to support the USG and look forward to continuing their deployments alongside our brave Sailors and Marines as they work tirelessly to keep America and her allies safe,” added Rose.
