Modern drone threats demand a new approach to air defense—one that is faster, scalable, and economically sustainable.
The TALOS Guardian™ system combines advanced radar, AI-enabled command and control, and high-speed interceptors into a complete sensor-to-effector kill chain designed to defeat modern drone threats.
How it works:
🔹 Detect – The Saab Giraffe 1X and RETIA ReGUARD radar systems detect, classify, and track incoming threats at long range.
🔹 Decide – The JISR C2 platform fuses sensor data into a common operating picture, prioritizes threats, and calculates optimal intercept solutions in real time.
🔹 Launch – TALOS-J interceptors are assigned and rapidly launched from mobile launcher systems protecting critical infrastructure and military assets.
🔹 Guide – Continuous radar and C2 updates provide mid-course guidance to the interceptor, directing it toward the predicted intercept point.
🔹 Acquire – OVES Nemesis AI software and the onboard infrared seeker enable autonomous terminal target acquisition and tracking.
🔹 Interdict – TALOS-J completes the engagement before the threat reaches its intended target.
What makes this program particularly exciting is the exceptional team behind it. TALOS Guardian is bringing together technologies from leading partners across radar, AI, command and control, autonomy, communications, and interceptor development to create a highly capable and affordable integrated air defense solution.
We are proud to be working alongside outstanding partners including OVES, JISR Institute, RETIA, Saab, and numerous other contributors helping shape the next generation of scalable counter-drone and air defense capabilities.
The future of air defense will be defined by systems that are faster, smarter, more affordable, and capable of countering mass drone attacks without relying exclusively on million-dollar interceptors.
That is the mission behind TALOS Guardian.
