Palantir to Develop TITAN Prototypes Under $178M US Army Contract

Palantir Technologies announced that it has secured a $178.4 million contract from the U.S. Army to develop and deliver the Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node ground station system.

TITAN is a ground station that would give the Army an artificial intelligence and machine learning-enabled deep sensing capability. It is designed to automate target recognition and categorization, reduce sensor-to-shooter timelines and enhance mission control and long-range precision fire accuracy using its access to various ground-, air- and space-based sensors.

Under the contract, Palantir will produce and field 10 TITAN prototypes that could integrate systems and solutions developed by other defense contractors. The prototypes include basic and advanced TITAN variants, Palantir said Wednesday.

The contract follows a $9.8 million deal the Defense Information Security Agency awarded to Palantir to create an Electromagnetic Battle Management-Joint Decision Support prototype. The EMBM-J DS enables interoperable electronic warfare battle management capabilities between combatant commands, the Joint Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations and other relevant organizations.
