Titan is AeroVironment's drone-detection line within the US Army's layered counter-drone contract. Titan is AeroVironment's multi-sensor drone-detection line, most recently the subject of an $80.5 million award from the US Joint Interagency Task Force 401 (JIATF-401) on 6 July 2026, part of a combined $580.5 million haul the company secured from the task force in a single day. The Titan family, led by the Titan-MS multi-sensor variant and the Titan 4 model, fuses radar, electro-optical and infrared sensors to detect,
identify, track, defeat and report on unmanned aircraft threats. It forms part of the Department of War's Domestic Shield programme, aimed at defending critical infrastructure and the US homeland against small drone incursions, and is delivered against a wider $500 million indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract with JIATF-401. The award lands amid a broader run of strong results for AeroVironment, which reported record full-year revenue of $1.98 billion (up 141%) in late June 2026, and reflects the US military's rapid build-out of layered counter-drone defences across domestic installations.
