Safe Pro To Integrate Automatic Mine Detection Software On Anduril UAS Under First Prime Contract

The US Army awarded Safe Pro Group a $2.5 million prime contract to integrate and evaluate automated mine-detection software aboard Anduril Industries' Ghost-X unmanned aircraft. The software processes aerial imagery to locate and map mines and other explosive hazards, with the project examining how airborne detection can assist M1 Abrams crews operating in threatened terrain. Safe Pro described the award as its first contract directly as a prime contractor, although its technology was already under Army evaluation in other trials. The new work is a test and demonstration effort, not an announced fleet-wide deployment or a completed certification of the detection system.
