Shield AI is developing X-BAT - large, AI-controlled vertical takeoff and landing fighter jet, as well as the Hivemind - intelligent platform for military applications. X-BAT has a 12-meter wingspan, a maximum range of 2,000 nautical miles, and a 4G maneuvering load factor. It can carry combat missiles and take off and land from ships, remote islands or rugged forward bases, eliminating dependence on traditional infrastructure. Its AI autopilot can operate in conditions of GPS and communications interference. The company is collaborating with the US Department of Defense to develop next-generation intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems and low-cost missiles. Its Vidar multi-camera system, with day and night vision cameras and sensors, is installed on reconnaissance drones for edge video analytics and mapping. The company is also developing Tracker C-UAS, an intelligent software solution for the early detection of drones in air defense systems using video from electro-optical and infrared sensors.

Askari Defense is building low-cost intelligent 3D-printed drone interceptors. The company offers two main types of hand-launched interceptors, both are fully autonomous (without a controller or manual control, except for the disable function), feature computer vision, and are aimed at the target (although they do include space for a small warhead). The first - Rift Alpha is an interceptor that fits in a standard military backpack and can be launched by the operator's hand, from a tube, or from a box. It has a range of approximately 2 km. The second - Rift Bravo is even smaller, very compact, and folds up (a dozen fit in a backpack) with a range of approximately 1 km.
