STEALTH NO MORE

Four companies emerged from stealth in since the last Space Dirt, each solving a different piece of the hard tech puzzle:

Twenty emerged from stealth as America's first and only venture-backed cyber warfare startup. The company delivers industrial-scale cyber capabilities to enable the United States and its allies to deter and defeat adversaries. Twenty's software executes cyber operations at an industrial scale and machine speed using intelligent and autonomous capabilities. In its first year, the company secured customers across the U.S. military and Intelligence Community and assembled a team of veterans from U.S. Cyber Command, National Security Agency, the IC, and the team behind the most successful SaaS cyber product in U.S. military history. Twenty raised $38 million from top defense tech investors, including Caffeinated Capital, General Catalyst, Friends & Family Capital, IQT (In-Q-Tel), and Tim Junio and Matt Kraning (Expanse Co-founders, acquired by Palo Alto Networks). The Co-founder and CEO is Joseph Lin. (source: LinkedIn and Ventureburn)

Why this matters: Cyberspace is the front line of the existential competition with China and Russia, but the U.S. still operates with manual, human-speed cyber capabilities. If Twenty can deliver AI-powered offensive cyber operations that scale to industrial levels, they're building the equivalent of what Palantir did for intelligence analysis—turning America's cyber operators into force multipliers who can operate at machine speed instead of human speed.

Maritime Fusion emerged from stealth with a $4.5 million seed round to build a new class of low-power-density fusion reactors designed specifically for ships and off-grid systems. The round was led by Trucks VC with participation from Aera VC, Alumni Ventures, Paul Graham, Y Combinator, and several angel investors. The company was part of Y Combinator’s winter 2025 batch. Unlike most fusion companies that target grid-scale power (which requires extremely high power density and near-continuous uptime), Maritime Fusion is starting with use cases that need far less power, have lower uptime requirements, and can hit cost parity sooner—reducing the toughest materials and confinement challenges. The team of former Tesla engineers is developing Yinsen, a compact HTS (high-temperature superconducting) tokamak, with research support from Columbia University and the U.S. Department of Energy's DIII-D facility. They're also building SHIELD, a high-temperature superconducting cable that recently carried 5,000 amps at 77K in a liquid-nitrogen test. The cable is small enough to fit inside a quarter yet powerful enough for fusion magnets, and the same technology can be sold into data centers for denser, more efficient power transmission. Justin Cohen and Jason Kaufmann are Co-founders. (source: LinkedIn and TechCrunch)

Why this matters: Every fusion company is racing to solve the hardest problem first (grid-scale power), which means they all hit the same material science and physics walls at the same time. Maritime Fusion is betting that starting with lower-stakes applications (ships, off-grid systems) lets them commercialize fusion years earlier—and the cable technology gives them a revenue stream today while they build toward fusion tomorrow. If they're right, the first commercial fusion reactor won't power a city. It'll power a ship.

Null Labs (YC F25) emerged from stealth, building infrastructure for defense autonomy that generates physics-accurate synthetic data on demand. The company is addressing a critical problem in military AI: models break when they encounter new camouflage patterns, different sea states, or target variants. Ukrainian operators described how Russian forces used cheap camouflage nets to reliably confuse computer vision models, forcing Ukrainian teams to spend weeks collecting and labeling new datasets repeatedly. Null Labs' infrastructure allows teams to generate the exact data they need when they need it, enabling AI systems that understand how the physical world works. Since launching a few months ago, the company joined Y Combinator, closed its first paying defense customer, and demonstrated the ability to generate over 10,000 physics-accurate synthetic frames in minutes. Co-founders are Kristopher Luo and Niel Ok. (source: LinkedIn)

Why this matters: The dirty secret of defense AI is that every model is brittle. Change one variable in the real world (lighting, weather, camouflage) and the system fails. Fixing it requires weeks of manual data collection, which means adversaries can deliberately break autonomous systems with cheap tactics. If Null Labs can generate physics-accurate synthetic training data in minutes instead of weeks, they're solving the generalization problem that's holding back every autonomous weapon system in development.

Extellis emerged from stealth with an oversubscribed $6.8 million seed round led by Raleigh-based Oval Park Capital to build high-volume, all-weather satellite imaging that delivers reliable Earth observation data at an industrial scale. The Durham, NC-based startup spun out of Duke University with patented metasurface antenna technology that enables an unprecedented blend of wide-area scanning and reliable, high-resolution sensing. The technology builds on a decade of development in co-founder and Prof. David Smith's lab at Duke University and was advanced through a $2.3 million DARPA grant. Unlike optical systems (which can't see at night or through clouds) and traditional synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems (which only operate 2% of the time before overheating), Extellis' satellites can take thousands of SAR images per day. Michael Boyarsky is the Co-founder and CEO (PhD in electrical and computer engineering from Duke, former research scientist at the university). Other investors include Duke Capital Partners, First Star Ventures, New Industry VC, Front Porch Venture Partners, EGB Capital, and Blue Lake VC. The seed round will fund Extellis' first orbital demonstration satellite. (source: Hypepotamus and EINPresswire)

Why this matters: Satellite imaging is stuck between two bad options: optical satellites that can't see through clouds or at night, and SAR satellites that are so expensive only defense customers can afford them. If Extellis can deliver all-weather SAR imaging at commercial prices (by running 50x more uptime than existing systems), they're unlocking massive markets that can't use satellites today: precision agriculture, pipeline monitoring, shipping logistics, and vegetation management. The difference between imaging 2% of Earth and imaging all of it, constantly, is the difference between a defense niche and a global utility.
