Who We Are

A2AD is at the forefront of developing autonomous and sovereign defence technology solutions, catering to the evolving needs of modern warfare. We specialize in delivering modular and scalable systems, ensuring strategic autonomy for our partners.

Why A2AD

Closing the Capability Gap

Australia’s defence strategy is evolving rapidly — but capability must follow at pace.
A2AD was created to close the gap between strategic ambition and operational effect.
We deliver systems that warfighters can field now — scalable, sovereign, and built for the fight ahead.

Designed to Adapt, Built to Scale

A2AD fields a modular, platform-agnostic mesh of autonomous systems.
Each unit — whether airborne, seaborne, or land-based — acts as a node contributing ISR, strike, resupply, or SAR effects.
Together, the mesh delivers scalable, resilient, and coordinated force projection across domains.

Built to Enable, Not Compete

We don’t replace primes—we strengthen the ecosystem.
A2AD’s systems are vertically integrated and IP-secure, designed for licensing, integration, and force multiplication.
Our goal is to accelerate the ecosystem, not disrupt it—while staying focused on enabling deterrence, not delay.

Sovereign by Necessity

A2AD leverages existing Australian logistics and industrial infrastructure—not as an afterthought, but by design.
We turn civilian systems into defence platforms, enabling mass production, decentralised logistics, and strategic independence.
With Australian control comes Australian readiness—fast, affordable, and exportable.

FAQ

To make Australia a hard target , fast. We deliver sovereign, modular, and autonomous defence systems that adapt faster, strike first, and endure always. Our mission is to close the gap between emerging threats and deployable capability — building scalable, attritable systems for the fight ahead.

Our Mission...

Guiding Principles 

Adaptability

Asymmetry

Scalability

Expendability

Our systems are designed to reconfigure in minutes, not months. Whether it's strike, ISR, or resupply — one platform, many missions. Modularity ensures mission relevance from peacetime deterrence to high-intensity conflict.

We don’t match threats — we outmaneuver them. A2AD creates dilemmas for adversaries using smart, distributed, and unpredictable systems. Every system is a force multiplier, imposing complexity and cost far beyond its scale.

From a handful of prototypes to nationwide deployment, A2AD systems scale fast. Built for production using Australia’s existing industrial base.We weaponize civilian infrastructure to surge capability when it matters most.

Our platforms are designed to be used, risked, and replaced. No single loss compromises capability — the network remains lethal. Mass allows for bold action — every unit is affordable, attritable, and replaceable by design.
