Anduril Industries has introduced the Ghost-X, the newest and most capable variant of its Ghost autonomous uncrewed aircraft system.

Ghost-X builds on the Ghost platform’s modular architecture to provide additional payload configurations and incorporates operational feedback from over 1,000 Ghost flight hours with a wide range of customers, including the UK Ministry of Defence.

Ghost-X is purpose-built for reconnaissance, security, and force protection and its upgraded propulsion system enables a dual battery configuration to extend flight time to 75 minutes and doubles Ghost’s total payload capacity to 9kg (20 lbs).
