Anduril to support US forces facing significant drone threats

Anduril Industries has been awarded a USD249,978,466 contract to deliver more than 500 Roadrunner-M systems and additional Pulsar electronic warfare systems to the United States Department of Defense. Deliveries will begin in the fourth quarter of 2024 and continue through the end of 2025.

Anduril’s Roadrunner system, a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) interceptor, is a recoverable explosive weapon designed to quickly intercept and neutralise larger uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) threats. Paired with the company’s Pulsar family of AI-enabled electronic warfare systems, this counter-drone capability will be deployed to operational sites in priority regions where US forces face significant UAS threats.

Roadrunner has been operationally deployed for Combat Evaluation since January 2024 and Pulsar has been operationally deployed in multiple regions since August 2023.
