Most recently, Anduril announced on Feb. 10 that the company had achieved AS9100 Certification, the best-in-class quality management standard used globally for organizations building aviation, space and defense products.
AS9100 certification includes all of the requirements of the more common ISO9001 certification and adds an extra set of standards specific to the aerospace industry. The AS9100 certification recognizes Anduril’s commitment to quality management in its strategic direction of the company, senior leadership, quality planning, support, hardware, software, performance evaluation and continuous improvement.
Earlier this month, Anduril announced its acquisition of the Boston-based autonomous underwater vehicle manufacturer Dive Technologies on Feb. 2 in a strategic move to add undersea coverage to the defense technology provider’s portfolio of unmanned systems.
Dive Technologies designed its UAV to also support non-military work such as infrastructure monitoring, seabed mapping and oceanographic sensing. Its DIVE-LD platform can be tailored to match military requirements for undersea battlespace awareness, anti-submarine warfare and mine countermeasures missions.
In addition, Anduril Industries announced the acquisition less than two weeks after securing a $968 million SOCOM counter-UAS tech integration contract. The company will help the U.S. Special Operations Command integrate systems for a counter-unmanned system prototyping project under the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity, follow-on production contract.
Back in October 2020, the U.S. Air Force conducted a test of its Advanced Battle Management System (ABMS) along with Anduril-built missile defense towers and command-and-control technology at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico.
Anduril’s work with the service branch for its ABMS capabilities took a “software-centric approach“ to developing the sentry system and made use of machine learning techniques to automate target detection and tracking.
In addition, Anduril continues to work with our military branches to develop fire protection systems that could help the U.S. Army defend our national interests against unmanned aerial systems, cruise missiles, rockets and other artillery and mortar weapons, according to Brose.
