Anduril Lattice: The Four Product Lines Anduril Sells
Anduril Lattice is a software platform split into four commercial product lines: Lattice for Command & Control, Lattice Mesh, Lattice for Mission Autonomy, and the Lattice SDK. Anduril does not publish licensing prices, contract values, or verified performance figures for any of these lines.
What Anduril Lattice Is
Most defense reporting names Lattice as a single tool, and that convention hides a four-way split. A reader who does not know there are four lines cannot tell which one a story is about.
Which line a story means changes what it tells you about Anduril’s software. A fifth entry in the same Lattice navigation, the Lattice Partner Program, covers the companies that integrate with it. Anduril documents each of the four lines on its own product page:
- Lattice for Command & Control (C2): the operator-facing battle management console.
- Lattice Mesh: the decentralized network that moves data between systems.
- Lattice for Mission Autonomy: the line that commands teams of uncrewed vehicles.
- Lattice software development kit (SDK): the interfaces, bindings and documentation outside developers build against.
Lattice for Command and Control
According to Anduril, Lattice for Command & Control (C2) is an "AI-powered battle management platform built to accelerate complex kill chains."
On its C2 product page, Anduril claims that Lattice for C2 "integrates thousands of sensors and effectors to turn data into decisions at scales and speeds beyond human capacity." The phrase "thousands" is Anduril's own unquantified corporate claim rather than an independently verified capacity metric.
Lattice Mesh and the Tactical Edge
According to Anduril, Lattice Mesh is "a decentralized mesh networking capability that securely distributes data across services, domains, platforms, and long distances providing access to critical information in remote, degraded, and low-bandwidth environments at the tactical edge."
Anduril markets Lattice Mesh under its own headline "Battles are won at the edge, not the data center." Anduril states that Lattice Mesh "connects thousands of Anduril and Third-Party systems across the world in support of real-world operations."
Lattice for Mission Autonomy
On its mission autonomy product page, Anduril states that Lattice for Mission Autonomy "enables teams of unmanned systems to autonomously and dynamically collaborate to achieve mission outcomes across sea, land, and air."
Anduril states that Lattice for Mission Autonomy "operationalizes affordable mass with teams of low-cost autonomous systems under the command of a single human operator, extending reach, capabilities and situational awareness while enabling warfighters to make better decisions, faster."
This supervisory model applies to systems like Anduril Roadrunner.
| Lattice line | What Anduril says it does | Who it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Lattice for Command & Control (C2) | AI-powered battle management platform built to accelerate complex kill chains by integrating sensors and effectors | Not published |
| Lattice Mesh | Decentralized mesh networking capability distributing data across domains in remote, degraded, and low-bandwidth edge environments | Not published |
| Lattice for Mission Autonomy | Enables teams of unmanned systems to collaborate autonomously across sea, land, and air under a single human operator | A single human operator commanding teams of autonomous systems |
| Lattice SDK | Allows developers to quickly build decentralized applications, data services, and hardware integrations into Lattice | Developers building applications, data services, and hardware integrations |
The Lattice SDK and Open Interfaces
According to Anduril, the Lattice SDK "allows developers to quickly build decentralized applications, data services, and hardware integrations into Lattice." Anduril states the SDK includes developer documentation, application programming interface (API) references, and sample applications designed to deploy capabilities to austere, contested operations.
Anduril publishes two sample applications on GitHub: Task An Asset and Entity Thumbnail. On tasks, Anduril states: "Tasks are the core open data model which communicate requests to manned or unmanned agents to perform purposeful activities, such as moving to a given location, orienting sensing towards a location of interest, or taking more active actions on other entities."
On objects, Anduril notes that "In Lattice, an object is a data model that lets you store and access files across your environment. The Object API is a content-delivery network service that provides resilient data storage at the edge."
While Anduril advertises open data models and standardized API bindings, these components do not make Anduril Lattice open source.
Anduril highlights four core technical attributes for the SDK:
- Open Data Models: Anduril states these allow developers to create, enrich, and reference entity data, craft C2 tasking messages, and integrate robots or tactical data links.
- Industry Standard Interfaces: The SDK exposes gRPC and REST APIs across language bindings including Java, JavaScript, Python, Go, and an OpenAPI definition.
- First-Class Security: Anduril states that API access uses industry-standard authentication and authorization, and that data distribution via the SDK is secured.
- Developer Experience: Developers can access a Lattice sandbox environment supported by Anduril staff by requesting to join the Lattice Developer Experience.
Lattice in the Field and Military Exercises
On 21 May 2026, Anduril published an item on its Lattice Mesh page headlined "NGC2 at Scale: How Team Anduril and the Army Took Lattice Across the 4th Infantry Division."
The public record establishes only the publication date and headline of that 4th Infantry Division report. Anduril does not publish the number of soldiers involved, unit equipment rosters, total network uptime, or formal military exercise results on its product pages.
The Lattice Partner Program and Third-Party Ecosystem
Anduril operates a formal integration network through the Lattice Partner Program. Anduril states that the program "cultivates a defense ecosystem built for the tactical edge by enabling partners to create, integrate and deploy meaningful capabilities via Lattice." Anduril says the program offers credibility and market differentiation by highlighting proven integrations with third-party systems.
Anduril publishes four specific partner benefits: Developer Resources (access to documentation, sandbox environments, representative data, and reference applications), Dedicated Support (access to dedicated Anduril support teams for troubleshooting), Credibility (highlighting integrations to customers), and Marketing (partner badging and joint marketing opportunities).
Anduril names ten corporate partners, and quotes a named executive at each. The roster spans space, ground, maritime, air, cloud and AI tooling. In the air domain, Textron Systems senior director Jim Ryan stated: "Textron Systems has teamed with Anduril on two DoD exercises demonstrating multi-aircraft and sensor control leveraging their Lattice software suite," adding that integrating Lattice software on their Aerosonde UAS was simple and effective.
In cloud infrastructure, Oracle executive vice president Kim Lynch noted that Oracle Cloud Infrastructure supports Lattice deployments in disconnected, intermittent, and low-bandwidth (DDIL) environments.
Across other domains, Apex Space chief executive officer Ian Cinnamon cited offering Lattice as a C2 option, while Impulse Space president Eric Romo stated that onboarding its Mira vehicle into Lattice allows a single operator to maneuver multiple spacecraft simultaneously.
In artificial intelligence tooling, Scale AI’s director of public sector deployment strategy, Shaliya Dehipawala, described pairing Scale’s Donovan with Lattice, which she said "adds orchestration, planning and simulation capabilities". Striveworks chief executive Jim Rebesco said "Lattice abstracts complexity away, enabling Striveworks to deliver the right model and the right inference at the right time to our users". Valinor Enterprises co-founder and chief executive Julie Bush said the programme gives Valinor’s "Builders best-in-class software resources".
A published partner roster shows which companies say they have integrated with Lattice, but it does not represent an audited military customer list or verify recurring operational usage.
What Would Change This Read
The current public baseline for Anduril Lattice consists of vendor-authored capability descriptions, unquantified scaling claims, and selected partner statements.
Analysts seeking structural context on how software-defined autonomy shapes modern defense contracts can review broader industry patterns across counter-UAS developments and military unmanned platforms. Independent technical assessments will remain constrained until primary procurement records fill the following gaps:
- A published pricing schedule, subscription structure, or standard software licensing schedule across the four Lattice product lines.
- Publicly released contract award values from the Department of Defense detailing recurring software maintenance or integration costs.
- An official military customer list detailing operational units using Lattice outside experimental field trials.
- Independent test and evaluation reports quantifying edge network latency, packet loss, or autonomous vehicle control limits in contested electronic warfare environments.
