This system represents the Army’s next-generation deep-sensing capability, driven by artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML). The agreement, valued at $178.4 million, involves developing 10 TITAN prototypes, including five Advanced and five Basic variants, alongside integrating new critical technologies and transitioning to fielding.
TITAN functions as a ground station accessing Space, High Altitude, Aerial, and Terrestrial sensors, furnishing actionable targeting information to enhance mission command and long-range precision fires. Palantir’s design of TITAN prioritizes usability for Soldiers, incorporating feedback from Soldier touchpoints throughout development.
Leveraging its prior experience in delivering AI capabilities for the warfighter, Palantir is now tasked with deploying the Army’s first AI-defined vehicle. Palantir’s commitment to providing soldiers with cutting-edge technology for tactical advantages on the battlefield underscores its partnership with the Army.
The company, along with its partners, possesses the expertise and agility required to deliver key Army modernization priorities, particularly in software-defined capabilities. As the prime contractor, Palantir will supply both software and hardware, establishing the foundation to correlate, fuse, and integrate sensor data.
The TITAN system aims to furnish real-time actionable intelligence using AI/ML modeling to process vast amounts of data at the tactical edge. It empowers the Army to fuse and integrate intelligence data from a myriad of sensors, enabling operational forces to gain comprehensive situational awareness and make timely decisions that significantly enhance the effectiveness of long-range precision fires.
This agreement was facilitated through an Other Transaction Authority (OTA) agreement, allowing the Army to tap into innovative solutions from non-traditional defense contractors. The award marks a successful continuation of the Army’s competitive, software-centric approach initiated in the June 2022 competitive prototyping phase of the TITAN Program.
