We present the discovery of a superjovian planet around the young A5 star HIP 54515, detected using precision astrometry from the Hipparcos Gaia Catalogue of Accelerations and high-contrast imaging with SCExAO/CHARIS from the recently commenced OASIS program. SCExAO/CHARIS detects HIP 54515 b in five epochs 0$\mathop{.}\limits{^{\prime\prime} }$145-0$\mathop{.}\limits{^{\prime\prime} }$192 from the star (∼3-4 λ/D at 1.65 μm), exhibiting clockwise orbital motion. HIP 54515 b lies near the M/L transition with a luminosity of log(L/L_⊙) ∼-3.52 ± 0.03. Dynamical modeling constrains its mass and mass ratio to be ${17.7}_{-4.9}^{+7.6}$M_Jup and ${0.0090}_{-0.0024}^{+0.0036}$ and favors a ∼25 au semimajor axis. HIP 54515 b adds to a growing list of superjovian planets with moderate eccentricities (e ≈ 0.4). Now, the third planet discovered from surveys combining high-contrast extreme adaptive optics imaging with precision astrometry, HIP 54515 b, should help improve empirical constraints on the luminosity evolution and eccentricity distribution of the most massive planets. It may also provide a key technical test of the Roman Space Telescope Coronagraph Instrument's performance in the low stellar flux, small angular separation limit, and a demonstration of its ability to yield constrainable planet spectral properties.
