In a strategic shift toward digital-first innovation, the US Army has partnered with Duality AI to create a powerful, AI-driven counter-drone system built entirely in simulation before ever touching real-world hardware.

The system, called “AI Target Detection and Recognition” (AiTDR), will be designed to give infantry troops a critical layer of protection on the battlefield, spotting and identifying hostile drones before they become a threat.

What sets it apart? Everything starts in the virtual world.
