Multinational conglomerate Mahindra Group has formed a strategic cooperation with US-based defense technology business Anduril Industries in a major step to improve regional security. Advanced autonomous systems are the area of expertise for the American defense technology business Anduril Industries, Inc.
With an emphasis on autonomous and counter-unmanned aerial systems, the partnership seeks to collaboratively develop and manufacture military technologies that are ready for the future.
The collaboration will focus on developing Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) that can be quickly deployed for security, survey, and reconnaissance operations, according to a release.
To strengthen defenses against unmanned aerial systems, the alliance will also concentrate on creating cutting-edge Counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems (CUAS) technologies that can identify and eliminate drone threats.
Shortly after the Modi-Trump bilateral talks in Washington, DC, when defense cooperation was a primary focus, this strategic collaboration was announced.
Vinod Sahay, Group Executive Board Member, Mahindra Group, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating, “Partnering with Anduril Industries marks a significant milestone in Mahindra Group’s commitment to developing advanced security and autonomous technologies. This collaboration combines our deep engineering expertise with Anduril’s innovative solutions to deliver cutting-edge capabilities that enhance security and address emerging threats.”
Greg Kausner, Senior Vice President of Global Defence at Anduril Industries, emphasized the importance of the partnership, asserting, “Global security forces face a rapidly evolving set of threats from both emerging unmanned systems and legacy manned platforms, and autonomy is key to maintaining credible protection.”
Greg Kausner added, “Anduril is thrilled to announce our partnership with Mahindra — we believe that our two companies together are well poised to bring cutting-edge autonomy-enabled capabilities to the Indian market
This partnership opens the door for deeper defense connections between India and the US and highlights a rising emphasis on leveraging next-generation technology to improve security capabilities.
