named in a public source · no deployment on file
A deployment is recorded when a public source names both the customer and the robot, or the maker confirms it. Nothing here counts against JAXA.
In Research, Saildrone, HEBI Robotics and NASA have deployment evidence on file.
Add a deployment →Mitsubishi Heavy Industries builds the HTV-X cargo spacecraft for JAXA and supplies major aerospace systems across Japan and international programs. The company’s manufacturing footprint spans aerospace and industrial systems rather than a standalone robotics-only product line, and HTV-X is one of its space-robotics-adjacent programs for ISS logistics and on-orbit demonstration missions.
