Aeon discloses new specs for its Zeus tactical missile

Aeon says its software-defined Zeus loitering munition can exceed Mach 0.65, carry a six-pound warhead, and use modular seeker and open-warhead interfaces across shoulder-fired, vehicle, vessel, and airborne launch configurations. The company pairs the weapon with its ODIN software and ATAK-compatible control, and claims a target unit price near $50,000 with planned production above 10,000 rounds annually. Aeon has referenced eight-figure U.S. Department of War contracts, but has not disclosed customer units, firm quantities, delivery schedules, or test evidence independently validating the speed, price, production-rate, and interoperability claims.
