Antaris™ Awarded Contract Under Missile Defense Agency's SHIELD IDIQ Program

The selection positions Antaris to compete for future task orders supporting the SHIELD program under the Missile Defense Agency’s contract vehicle. 

Antaris™, the AI-powered platform for the design, simulation, manufacturing, and operation of satellite constellations, today announced its selection under the Missile Defense Agency’s SHIELD IDIQ, a multiple-award contract vehicle supporting activities related to the development of the nation’s Golden Dome architecture. 

Under the SHIELD IDIQ, Antaris is eligible to provide software capabilities supporting modeling, simulation, and mission-level analysis for complex, multi-system architectures. Antaris delivers these capabilities through its Full Mission Virtualization™ platform, which represents mission operations across design, test, and operational environments within a single software framework. 

“Golden Dome represents a class of problems that outgrow hardware-first development and sequential system integration,” said Tom Barton, CEO and Co-Founder of Antaris. “We built Antaris to model and simulate mission architectures in software first, at the scale these programs require.”
