US Army awards $192M to Palantir, Anduril for TITAN production美国陆军授予Palantir和Anduril公司1.92亿美元合同，用于生产TITAN导弹系统。
The Army moved its TITAN program from prototyping to production with a $192 million award to Palantir and Anduril this week.
The U.S. Army moved its Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN) program from prototyping to production earlier this week with a combined $192 million award to Palantir Technologies and Anduril Industries.
A cornerstone of the Army’s ground system modernization effort, TITAN was designed to simplify the data-gathering process for soldiers aiming at far-off targets.
The Army chose Palantir as the prime contractor to develop the next-generation targeting system in 2024 .
Palantir, which received $127 million, will lead TITAN’s production, alongside L3 Harris Technologies, Sierra Nevada Corporation, Strategic Technology Consulting and World Wide Technology.
Anduril, which received $65 million under the award, will manufacture the ruggedized, vehicle-mounted systems and integrate the power and thermal subsystems that allow TITAN to operate in austere environments.
The TITAN program will create an advanced variant of the system to be mounted on the Army’s tactical trucks and have the ability to gather data from space sensors , as well as a basic variant for the service’s Joint Light Tactical Vehicle.
The award covers procurement and integration of four advanced and four basic variants, which are slated for delivery over the next 18 months. Those will buttress the Army’s nine existing prototype units that the service uses today.
The Army expects to award additional production orders in fiscal 2027.
本周早些时候，美国陆军将战术情报目标访问节点 (TITAN) 项目从原型设计阶段推进到生产阶段，并向 Palantir Technologies 和 Anduril Industries 授予了总计 1.92 亿美元的合同。
作为陆军地面系统现代化工作的基石，TITAN 的设计目的是简化士兵瞄准远距离目标的数据收集过程。
陆军选择 Palantir 作为主承包商，于 2024 年开发下一代目标瞄准系统。
获得 1.27 亿美元投资的 Palantir 将牵头生产 TITAN，其他参与者包括 L3 Harris Technologies、Sierra Nevada Corporation、Strategic Technology Consulting 和 World Wide Technology。
Anduril 公司获得了 6500 万美元的合同，将制造坚固耐用的车载系统，并集成电源和热子系统，使 TITAN 能够在恶劣环境下运行。
TITAN 计划将打造一个先进的系统版本，安装在陆军的战术卡车上，能够从太空传感器收集数据；同时还将打造一个基本版本，用于陆军的联合轻型战术车辆。
该合同涵盖采购和集成四款先进型和四款基础型装备，预计将在未来18个月内交付。这些装备将增强陆军目前使用的九款原型装备。
陆军预计将在 2027 财年授予更多生产订单。
