The first Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node was delivered to a base in Washington state, just months after Palantir Technologies won a $178 million contract to build prototypes.
Why it matters: TITAN is key to the U.S. military's connect-everything-everywhere campaign and is a dramatic move away from spreadsheets and sticky notes of the past.
Context: Palantir is expected to build 10 prototypes after besting RTX in a yearslong faceoff.
- TITAN lets troops hoover up data from space, air and land and employ artificial intelligence to quickly and accurately parse it, ultimately reducing the time it takes to pull the trigger.
What they're saying: "Having a software prime win a hardware contract, I think, has not gone unnoticed, both from the existing industrial base but also the defense-tech players, as a signal of how serious the department is about doing these things differently," Shyam Sankar, Palantir's chief technology officer, told me.
- Palantir's subcontracting team includes heavyweights Northrop Grumman, Anduril Industries and L3Harris Technologies.
What's next: Soldiers will put TITAN prototypes through rigorous testing. Feedback will shape how the project proceeds.
