Voyager Technologies is on contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory under a $21 million contract to develop AI-enabled next-generation intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance systems.
“Today’s threats change fast, so our systems must adapt faster than the threats they counter,” said Matt Magaña, president of Space, Defense & National Security at Voyager. “By combining next-generation sensor architectures with open designs and built-in AI, we’re creating agile surveillance solutions ready for platforms across ground, air, surface, space, and cyber.”
The effort focuses on the development of digital signal processing capabilities for multi-domain operations and the delivery of situational awareness tools. These tools fuse information from multiple sources into a single, clear picture, helping decision-makers act faster and stay ahead in fast-moving situations. To address emerging ISR and cyber operations, Voyager is developing GPU-based surveillance systems enabled by AI to support irregular warfare in near-peer engagements, tracking threats in real-time, as they operate in both military and civilian RF infrastructures.
This award reinforces Voyager’s position at the forefront of defense innovation, developing airborne ISR technologies that scale seamlessly from tactical small Unmanned Aircraft Systems to high-altitude platforms while ensuring future-ready adaptability. Voyager’s mission expertise can rapidly transition these technologies to the field and may result in follow-on production contracts.
