Featured solution
Autonomy
ARA delivers resilient autonomous systems, advanced robotics, and unmanned platforms engineered to perform in the most demanding operational environments.
Designed for contested, GPS-denied, and high-risk environments, these solutions strengthen force protection and extend operational reach. ARA’s autonomous systems support critical tasks including mission planning, reconnaissance, survivability, and mobility/countermobility – all while reducing risk to personnel.
By combining intelligent autonomy with mission-driven engineering, ARA gives our security and defense partners the ability to operate confidently in any environment.
Featured solution
Weapons Solutions
ARA provides full spectrum weapons solutions backed by leading expertise in advanced warhead design, production, testing, and weaponeering. Our teams empower national security partners with the insights needed to understand evolving threats, characterize complex targets, and make informed, mission-critical decisions with confidence.
We combine rigorous engineering and operational understanding to deliver validated, high-confidence kinetic and non-kinetic engagement effects that inform planning, operations, and rapid decision-making across domains.
Through proven capabilities in weapons effects modeling, rigorous testing, energetics development, and CBRNE defense, ARA helps ensure mission effectiveness, survivability, and decisive outcomes against the full spectrum of modern threats.
Featured solution
Intel, Planning & Decision Support
We strengthen national security through integrated intelligence, mission planning, and decision-support capabilities that deliver advanced insights for complex operations across land, sea, air, space, and cyber domains.
Our ISR systems, threat detection technologies, and situational awareness tools offer timely, mission-critical information. Leveraging digital mission planning, data science, and secure cloud-to-edge architectures, we enable actionable intelligence for operational planning and real-time decision making.
With a range of effective planning and assessment tools, we help defense partners anticipate threats, optimize operations, and maintain a decisive advantage against our adversaries.
Featured solution
EW Technologies
Electronic warfare is a vital component of modern military strategy, and ARA is advancing U.S. dominance across the electromagnetic spectrum.
Our EW capabilities span electronic attack, electronic protection, and electronic support to serve as a force multiplier and hinder adversaries. With integrated RF systems, powerful computational electromagnetics, authentic threat emitter technologies, and immersive hardware‑in‑the‑loop environments, ARA’s EW expertise supports enhanced readiness and resilience across domains. We also support the design, fabrication, and testing of advanced antennas, radomes, and other radio frequency (RF) components.
Our innovative EW solutions help U.S forces disrupt, disable, and protect critical systems, providing a decisive edge in offensive and defensive operations.
