Our take

According to DEFCON AI, current military logistics and supply chain operations are not resilient to disruptive events. This can mean that vital personnel, equipment, and cargo might not get where they are needed at the right times, a problem that the company hopes to combat.

Its approach is to deliver high-quality simulations that show how different logistics operations and supply chains respond to disruption. Leveraging AI and advanced software architectures, DEFCON AI can model events at multiple levels of fidelity, supplying actionable insights for improvement.

A Red Cell Partners’ incubation, DEFCON AI has grown impressively since founding in 2022. It has closed millions of dollars in funding and delivered a well-received first product. Now, with its latest investment, the company will grow its team, enhance its R&D program and extend its core capabilities.
