Safe Pro Group wins Army contract with Anduril's Ghost-X for tank protection
Safe Pro Group, a U.S. Army prime contractor, partnered with Anduril to integrate Anduril's Ghost-X drone into a system designed to protect tanks.
What happened
Safe Pro Group secured a U.S. Army prime contract and selected Anduril's Ghost-X autonomous helicopter drone to provide what the contractor calls "super intelligence" for tank protection. Ghost-X is a small, backpack-portable drone that troops can deploy to scout ahead and identify threats. The specific value of the contract and deployment timeline were not disclosed in available reports.
Background
Ghost-X is Anduril's latest iteration of the Ghost drone, a small autonomous helicopter designed for company-level military operations (typically 100 to 200 troops). It was selected in 2024 for the U.S. Army's small unmanned aircraft system program. Ghost-X breaks down to fit in a backpack and requires minimal training to operate, making it useful for forward reconnaissance and target finding. Safe Pro Group is an established U.S. defense contractor that serves as a prime contractor to the Department of Defense.
What to watch next
Watch for details on the contract value and the timeline for fielding the system to Army units. It is unclear whether this is a pilot program or represents a larger procurement.
