Weapons
Through cutting-edge weapons systems and battlefield technology we’re supporting readiness and capability at the front line. From autonomous systems and drones to advanced warfighting technologies, our solutions are engineered for rapid adaptation to evolving threats, underpinned by a legacy of delivering complex support, platform integration, and mission assurance.
Our work
At the heart of the UK’s largest multi‑domain AI defence trial
Advance surveillance technologies through the right data
• Large‑scale trial to understand how ML can revolutionise ATR across multiple domains and platforms. • Five‑day capture of visual/IR/band radar data from RN vessels, ground vehicles, and manned/uncrewed aircraft in mission scenarios. • Multispectral footage plus metadata/context now exploited to advance defence software development.
Tactical Remote Effector Delivery (Alpha & Nyx)
Autonomous drones to interdict fast IED vehicles
• Alpha plug‑and‑play AI target detect/track and Nyx interdiction platform with flexible payloads. • Proven to stop vehicles up to 60 mph; operators guided by simple UI. • Dual‑domain employment across land and maritime.
Internal Ballistics Software Suite
Faster design cycles for propellant‑burning gun systems
• Validated modelling to predict performance across large calibre, small arms, mortars, CTA and rocket motors. • Reduces experimental trials cost/time to market with rapid design space assessment. • Applicable across MOD and allied weapons development.
Energetics & Vulnerability
Assessing blast, ballistics and shock to harden critical assets
• Dedicated team modelling high‑consequence dynamic events from first principles to high‑fidelity analysis. • Covers malicious threats, catastrophic failures and operational safety across platforms and facilities. • Informs design choices to reduce vulnerability and enhance mission resilience.
Hypersonics – MOD HTCDF framework
Scaling UK hypersonic strike capability to TRL9
• Systems engineering, structures/aero and modelling to support future operational elements. • Commitment to rapid technology maturation for sovereign capability. • Complementary to INVICTUS air‑breathing research.
UK Test & Evaluation (T&E) industry working group
Reducing procurement friction and widening SME access
• Community across test planning, instrumentation, execution, analysis, certification and design feedback. • Promotes innovation pathways and exportable best practice in T&E. • Open engagement to broaden participation and accelerate outcomes.
Robotic & Autonomous Systems (RAS)
Assuring autonomous systems from concept to operations
• CONEMPS, logistics, training and regulations underpinned by agile safety & assurance. • Test & evaluation and full systems integration; supply‑chain analysis for mass manufacture. • 10 years of delivery experience across defence domains.
