Anduril Industries

Spark

A dual-band X/Ku hemispheric radar purpose-built for on-the-move sensing, packaging both counter-UAS and anti-vehicle detection into a single compact unit optimized for vehicle self-protection. Spark can track Group 1 drones out to about 10 km, Group 3 unmanned aerial systems out to about 18 km, and ground vehicles out to about 12 km, letting every vehicle in a formation see, share and maneuver as one. The technology came to Anduril through its 2025 acquisition of Numerica Corporation's radar and command-and-control business, and Anduril has partnered with General Dynamics Land Systems to integrate Spark onto armored vehicles and other ground platforms, with planned expansion to command posts, missile launchers and fire elements.
