About Harmattan AI
Harmattan separates autonomy into a platform layer that flies and controls each vehicle and a mission layer that coordinates assets around an operator’s intent. This allows several aircraft, sensors and effectors to work as a distributed system while retaining human authority over mission goals and engagement decisions.
Its named systems cover different parts of that chain. Gobi and Kalahari address aerial interception and short-range air defence, Sahara carries synthetic-aperture radar for ISR, and Sonora provides a reusable aircraft for training and readiness. Harmattan also develops mission-management and electronic-warfare payloads rather than relying on one universal airframe.
