JIATF-401 Awards AeroVironment $80.5M Contract for Titan Multi-Sensor System Under Domestic Shield Program
The U.S. Joint Interagency Task Force 401 (JIATF-401) has selected AeroVironment's Titan MS multi-sensor system and awarded an $80.5 million contract to support the Domestic Shield program, bolstering counter-UAS protection for critical defense infrastructure on U.S. home soil.
Highlights
- JIATF-401 awarded AeroVironment a contract worth $80.5 million for the Titan MS multi-sensor C-UAS system to support the U.S. Domestic Shield program.
- The contract is executed under a $500 million IDIQ sole-source contract framework recently announced by JIATF-401.
- The Titan MS system uses AI and machine learning to detect, identify, track, defeat, and report both RF-controlled and autonomous drone threats.
- The procurement will help the U.S. Air Force establish multi-layered sUAS defenses for critical defense infrastructure on U.S. home soil.
- The Titan product family is already integrated into multiple U.S. military and government C-UAS programs, with this award extending prior JIATF-401 Titan deployments.
JIATF-401 Selects AeroVironment Titan MS System for Domestic Shield Mission
The U.S. Joint Interagency Task Force 401 (JIATF-401) has selected AeroVironment Inc. (AV)'s Titan MS (Multi-Sensor) system and awarded a contract valued at $80.5 million to support the Domestic Shield program.
Contract Background
The contract is issued under a recently announced $500 million Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) sole-source contract vehicle. JIATF-401 leads the program and works with the military services and interagency partners to validate requirements, integrate resources, and accelerate the deployment of layered counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS) capabilities.
About the Domestic Shield Program
Domestic Shield is a Department of Defense initiative designed to strengthen C-UAS protection for critical defense infrastructure and other high-priority homeland defense targets. This procurement order will help the U.S. Air Force establish a multi-layered air defense capability against small unmanned aircraft system (sUAS) threats, building on JIATF-401's prior acquisitions of the Titan C-UAS system.
Titan MS System Capabilities
The AI-powered Titan MS system is purpose-built to detect, identify, track, defeat, and report drone threats. It integrates artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to simultaneously counter both radio-frequency (RF)-controlled and autonomously operating UAS threats. The Titan product family is already integrated into multiple U.S. military and government programs.
