As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

The Connected Warfare division provides the joint, time-sensitive, multi-domain, ubiquitous, connected mesh ecosystem built from hardware, software, and partners to solve mission command problems. This mesh powers applications and unifies Anduril capabilities that provide mission command to the warfighter and facilitate real-time decisions at the tactical, operational, and strategic level of war. This ecosystem enables disproportionate impact by connecting every robot, human, and sensor in every domain, bringing together hundreds of thousands of endpoints across the planet. It transforms the way militaries close kill chains and leverage mission autonomy, and it enables developers to build experiences in a connected mesh ecosystem.
