- Anduril Industries received $65 million to manufacture ruggedized, vehicle-mounted systems and integrate the power and thermal subsystems that enable TITAN to operate in austere environments.
Background
The Army selected Palantir as the prime contractor to develop the next-generation targeting system in 2024.
System Variants
The TITAN program will produce two variants:
- Advanced variant – Mounted on the Army’s tactical trucks, with the ability to gather data from space sensors.
- Basic variant – Designed for the service’s Joint Light Tactical Vehicle.
Delivery and Future Orders
The award covers the procurement and integration of four advanced and four basic variants, scheduled for delivery over the next 18 months. These units will supplement the Army’s nine existing prototype units currently in use.
