Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) has been awarded a $2.5 million prime contract by the U.S. Army to integrate its autonomous mine detection and mapping software into Anduril Industries' Ghost-X unmanned aerial system. The six-month contract, awarded by Project Manager Abrams, marks Safe Pro's first prime contract and will involve testing and demonstrations of its Ground Truth Air software to evaluate its ability to detect battlefield threats and protect M1 Abrams tanks and their crews, according to a Defense Daily article by Cal Biesecker that featured Safe Pro Group (NASDAQ: SPAI).
The technology will operate directly aboard the Ghost-X drone, with detected threats streamed into Army networks and Anduril's Lattice operating system. This integration aims to provide real-time situational awareness to ground forces, potentially reducing risks to armored vehicles and personnel. The article noted that Safe Pro's artificial intelligence technology is already being evaluated by the Army through initiatives including Project Sandhills and is widely used in Ukraine to detect landmines, unexploded ordnance, and improvised explosive devices. The company's AI models draw on more than 3.2 million drone images and over 60,200 confirmed detections across more than 40,250 acres in Ukraine.
Safe Pro Chairman and CEO Dan Erdberg told Defense Daily that successful demonstrations could lead to the technology being incorporated into Ghost-X or other drones under the Army's potential Medium Range Reconnaissance program. This contract underscores the growing role of AI in modern warfare and the increasing demand for autonomous systems that can enhance soldier safety and operational efficiency. For investors, the prime contract represents a significant milestone for Safe Pro, validating its technology and opening doors to larger defense programs. The company's scalable, cloud-based platform, powered by Amazon Web Services, targets multiple markets including commercial, government, law enforcement, and humanitarian sectors.
