Anduril Lands $642 Million Deal To Deliver Air Defense Systems For U.S. Marines

Anduril has been awarded a $642 million, 10-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Program of Record by the U.S. Marine Corps to deliver, install and sustain Installation-Counter small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (I-CsUAS). Anduril’s comprehensive I-CsUAS solution leverages the power of AI and advanced autonomy, equipping the U.S. Marine Corps with hardware and software capabilities required to address evolving aerial threats and protect installations worldwide over the next decade.

This program validates Anduril’s CUAS advantage, enabling 24/7 autonomous operations powered by Lattice, Anduril’s advanced software platform. Lattice uses AI to autonomously detect, track, identify and neutralize aerial threats, empowering human operators to rapidly make critical decisions with minimal manpower.

Through a software-first approach, Anduril’s integrated family of systems delivers comprehensive protection customized to the needs of each installation. Anduril’s solution integrates multiple sensors and effectors into an easy-to-use, shared command and control (C2) interface and uses an open architecture to enable rapid iteration and system upgrades, providing the U.S. Marine Corps with the most advanced capabilities to outpace evolving threats over the 10 year period of performance.

This award expands our partnership with the U.S. Marine Corps, following a $200 million contract awarded in November to develop and deliver a CUAS Engagement System for the Marine Air Defense Integrated System (MADIS). To meet the growing demand for its defense solutions, Anduril has invested in Arsenal-1, a first of its kind manufacturing facility that leverages software to manufacture autonomous systems at scale. Arsenal-1 will enable timely deployment of systems worldwide while maintaining the flexibility to adapt to future defense needs.

The scope of this program is a testament to the U.S. Marine Corps’ commitment to leveraging the latest in advanced technology to protect its troops and strategic assets from the aerial threats defining modern conflicts. By leveraging autonomous capabilities, Anduril is turning an urgent requirement into an enduring, scalable solution.
