The partnership will support defence operations by enabling quicker, more informed decisions, crucial for protecting national security and that of allied nations. Christopher E. Kubasik, Chair and CEO of L3Harris, stated that the collaboration with Palantir will build on existing efforts to improve performance across multiple domains.
Palantir’s co-founder and CEO, Alex Karp, emphasised the importance of combining AI dominance with cutting-edge hardware to support U.S. and allied defence. Ongoing initiatives under the partnership include work on U.S. Army programmes, such as TITAN, and efforts aligned with the Army’s Unified Network Strategy.
The companies are investing in innovative solutions to push computing to the far edge, including integrating sensors, radios, and orbital processing technologies for future battlefield communications and tactical decision-making. A recent demonstration saw L3Harris’ WESCAM MX-20 EO/IR system paired with Palantir’s Sensor Inference Platform, providing advanced target detection and communication during a live fly test.
