Mission and programs · 2025

• Oceans Unmanned initiated a collaborative effort with HII this year to execute a training and evaluation program within the Point Mugu Sea Range situated off the coast of Port Hueneme. The primary objective of this initiative is to assess and refine the efficiency of unmanned aerial and surface vehicles. Oceans Unmanned is committed to ensuring the complete safety of the public and marine life during all project operations. It is imperative to highlight that the exercise will strictly prohibit the utilization of live ammunition sound devices underwater or any nets that could pose a threat to sea birds mammals or fish. In support of this endeavor Oceans Unmanned provided small boats and dedicated observers to facilitate the seamless execution of these exercises emphasizing environmental preservation and safety protocols throughout the duration of the year.

Officers and directors · 2025

As listed in Part VII of the 2025 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
