Allen Control Systems (ACS) has оголосили that the US Army Applications Laboratory (AAL) has awarded the company a $1.5 million contract to develop an integration readiness plan for its Bullfrog autonomous weapon station across five of the Army’s most widely deployed combat vehicles. The agreement includes potential options worth up to $4.5 million.
This initiative is a collaborative effort involving the Army’s Combat Capabilities Development Command Ground Vehicle Systems Center (GVSC) and the 1st Cavalry Division’s Transformation in Contact (TiC) brigade. The plan will assess Bullfrog’s deployment on several critical Army platforms.
Bullfrog Designed for Scalable Counter-Drone Defense
“Bullfrog is purpose-built to meet the Army’s demand for scalable, expeditionary counter-drone defenses for fixed and on-the-move operations,” said Mike Wior, co-founder and CEO, ACS.
“We’re proud to work with AAL and its partners to demonstrate how Bullfrog can extend protection to soldiers across the Army’s most vital combat vehicles.”
Accelerating Integration and Prototyping
“This contract will enable rapid prototyping and speed up the integration of Allen Control Systems’ AI powered weapon station technologies into the hands of Soldiers. It allows for immediate feedback from the warfighter,” said MAJ Colby Burkhart, Project Lead, Army Applications Laboratory.
“This capability will help enable the Army to make informed decisions on scalable solutions to confront the growing threat of low-cost weaponized drones that continues to evolve.”
Next-Generation Autonomous Systems for Modern Warfare
ACS is developing advanced autonomous systems to meet the demands of modern combat. Its flagship product, Bullfrog, is an autonomous precision weapon station that enables any legacy or modern firearm to achieve accurate engagements at any target, significantly improving battlefield effectiveness.
