2022 deal to 2023 launch

In October 2022, Kodiak won a 2-year, $50 million contract from the Defense Department to help develop automated combat vehicles for the army. This is all a part of a larger plan to help develop autonomous vehicle technology to navigate complex terrain, diverse operational conditions and GPS-challenged environments, while also providing the Army with tools to remotely operate vehicles when necessary.

Specifically, Kodiak is utilizing this deal by partnering with Maersk and creating remote driving capabilities to increase the flexibility of these autonomous vehicles, while further reducing risk for soldiers.

As of October 5, Maersk announced that both parties have launched the first commercial autonomous trucking lane between Houston and Oklahoma City. This freight lane marks an expansion between Kodiak and Maersk since November 2022, and continues to execute their project for automated vehicles.

"We are proud to have the opportunity to leverage our cutting-edge self-driving technology for defense applications, and believe our work with DIU and the U.S. Army will both help strengthen national security and hasten our path to commercial deployment. We owe a debt of gratitude to the servicemen and women who step into harm's way to keep us safe; keeping them safe in return is an honor we take seriously." — Don Burnette, CEO and Founder of Kodiak
