The Department of Defense has awarded defense technology company Anduril Industries a $250 million contract to strengthen air defense capabilities across all military services.
Anduril said Tuesday the contract covers the delivery of more than 500 Roadrunner-Ms and additional Pulsar electronic warfare capabilities to enhance the nation’s defense against the emerging threat of unmanned aerial systems attacks.
The Roadrunner, a vertical takeoff and landing interceptor launched in 2023, is designed to intercept and neutralize larger UAS threats by utilizing its speed and maneuverability. It will be deployed, along with the artificial intelligence-powered Pulsar electronic warfare systems, to key locations where UAS threats are significant.
Deliveries are expected from the fourth quarter of 2024 until the end of 2025.
The Pulsar and Roadrunner have been deployed for combat evaluation since August 2023 and January 2024, respectively.
Anduril has received $350 million worth of contracts since launching the Roadrunner and Pulsar counter-drone systems.
