America First Defense (AFD), part of the Gaxos.ai portfolio, has initiated the deployment of the Anduril Lattice platform to strengthen counter-UAS operations, including defenses against drone swarm threats.
The system is built to detect, monitor, evaluate, and respond to unmanned aerial threats. Integrating Lattice allows AFD to operate within a software-defined command-and-control framework that connects sensor inputs, data analysis, and response actions under a single interface.
As an open, platform-agnostic solution, Lattice collects information from distributed sensors and linked defense systems, including surveillance and command networks. Its AI-driven algorithms prioritize actionable data, giving operators a unified situational awareness view. The platform also enables direct tasking of sensors or defensive assets, allowing quicker threat engagement and coordinated responses.
AFD’s deployment of Lattice represents a strategic step in expanding counter-drone capabilities, aligning with the rising use of drones in military and civilian spheres. This initiative complements AFD’s recent licensing of the Detachable Drone Highjacker from the US Navy—a drone-mounted payload capable of neutralizing adversary UAVs through targeted cyber interventions, providing more precise disruption than conventional electronic warfare techniques.
