Citadel Defense has been awarded three new counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (cUAS) contracts from the U.S. Government for its newest product, Titan Drone Finder (Titan DF).

Developed alongside servicemen and servicewomen, the new Titan DF solution allows operators to locate the target drone, track the flight path, and autonomously neutralize threats that cross a user-defined alert zone.

Citadel’s rapidly growing family of Titan cUAS systems has automation that creates a distinct operational advantage for servicemen and servicewomen on the front lines. When defending against swarms and difficult-to-detect threats, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered combat systems like Titan allow operators to identify and terminate enemy UAS threats with speed, accuracy, and reliability.

“We take every measure to compress the time and space required for operators to make a decision and take action against a threat in their airspace,” said Christopher Williams, CEO of Citadel Defense. 

“Machines can perceive, decide, and act more quickly and accurately than humans in complex environments. Citadel solutions autonomously clear the airspace of UAS threats, keeping servicemen and servicewomen available for other important tasks in high-risk and resource-constrained environments.” 

The company has expanded its Application Programming Interface (API), making drone and pilot location data accessible for layered defense systems and multiple command and control systems deployed across the military and government.
