# Anduril Pulsar
[[Anduril]]'s AI-powered electronic warfare (EW) system — a software-defined jammer that uses artificial intelligence at the edge to rapidly detect and counter drone threats through electromagnetic disruption. Pulsar represents Anduril's entry into electronic warfare, complementing its kinetic interceptors ([[Anduril Anvil]], [[Anduril Roadrunner]]) with non-kinetic defeat options.
## What It Does
Pulsar is a software-defined EW system that jams enemy drones, provides geolocation of threats, and disrupts communications. The AI-driven approach enables rapid adaptation to new and evolving threats — when a new drone type or communication protocol appears, Pulsar's software can be updated to counter it without hardware changes. The system provides 360-degree anti-drone defense.
### Variants
- **Pulsar:** Full-size system for fixed-site and vehicle-mounted deployment
- **Pulsar-L:** Lighter, smaller variant in two configurations — airborne (integrated with aircraft) and expeditionary (man-portable). Already operationally fielded.
## Who Uses It
### SOCOM
Earliest and most aggressive adopter. Pulsar was debuted during SOF Week and is part of the $1B SOCOM IDIQ (10-year) for counter-drone hardware and software. Pulsar-L was first fielded operationally with SOCOM forces.
### Multiple U.S. Military Branches
Included in the $250M DOD contract alongside [[Anduril Roadrunner]] (October 2024). Part of the $642M Marine Corps counter-drone deal and the $20B Army enterprise agreement. The airborne variant can be integrated with aircraft for en-route jamming operations.
