What They Build
Armory develops SURGE, an AI-powered counter-unmanned aircraft system for detecting, tracking, neutralising, and destroying hostile drones.
Why They Matter
Counter-drone systems became urgent as cheap unmanned platforms moved from nuisance to battlefield threat. Armory matters because it has early Ministry of Defence orders in one of the fastest-moving procurement categories. The hard part is delivering reliable hardware and software at government scale while the company is still young.
