Defence & security

The link is the first thing contested. Keep the connection anyway.

For procurement officers, programme managers and integrators: one encrypted connection over the dissimilar bearers the platform already carries — with no controller, no cloud and nothing new to procure for a pilot.

The stakes

The stakes
Communications fail exactly when the mission needs them most — that is what “contested” means.
01

The convoy enters the valley

Cellular is saturated, the tactical band is interfered with, and the satellite terminal is in a terrain shadow. Command traffic must not care which of them survives.

02

The feed and the commands share one dying link

A drone team’s video and control channel compete on a degrading path — and without delivery contracts, the wrong one wins.

03

The report can’t wait for an operator to notice

A forward position’s satellite path drops during handover to headquarters. The queue must hold, and drain the moment anything returns.

One connection over everything

The bearers you have, as one encrypted system.

Nexus Atlas bonds the links the platform already carries — SATCOM, tactical radio, cellular, Wi-Fi, mesh, wired, others and even your custom waveform — into one encrypted connection that survives any single failure. Pure software on the compute already installed.

Three pillars

What the configuration is built to protect.

Every pillar maps to a demonstrable behavior, not a brochure adjective.

01 · REDUNDANCY

Redundancy that scales with the threat

Under worsening interference the scheduler escalates from one to two to three simultaneous transmission paths — on a direct link set, and on every hop of a relayed route — and scales back when the spectrum clears. Diversity across links and bands does the work.

02 · PRIORITY

Command traffic always first

Six delivery contracts. A video stream can never crowd out the command channel, and duplicated command classes ride through a link loss without interruption.

03 · AUTONOMY

No infrastructure to trust

Every node autonomous; the data plane works fully offline; configuration spreads over the encrypted tunnels themselves. A partitioned force keeps operating on both sides of the split.

0.1–0.75 sTypically configured reweighting cadence — deployment-specific, not a universal recovery guarantee.
0.0008%Effective loss from three independent links each losing 2% (broadcast mode).
2 minKey rotation, measured at zero packet loss during the swap.
6+ typesDissimilar link types bonded on one node — six shown in the field demonstration, with no fixed upper limit.
Drone control 1:1

One operator, one aircraft, bonded cellular and radio.

Control is duplicated across links, so a base-station handoff or a fading band passes without interruption; video aggregates across whatever capacity remains.

Formations as relays

The formation is the network.

Multi-hop mesh across the aircraft: when one is lost, the topology recomputes the moment the loss is detected — ≈1.25 s at default settings — and traffic threads through the survivors: spatial and spectral redundancy in one fabric. The swarm-fabric deep-dive

Field robotics & EOD

The operator never loses the asset.

Teleoperated ground robots on bonded radio links, with redundant control paths held warm — an obstacle that blocks one radio doesn’t block the mission.

Forward logistics

Autonomous robots across a forward base.

Bonded Wi-Fi and mesh radio keep logistics robots moving across large structures where any single radio has shadows.

Base-to-base trunks

Trunks that survive partial destruction.

Encrypted multi-path trunks bonding satellite, microwave and tactical radio between positions — the trunk degrades gracefully instead of failing with its weakest member.

ISR distribution

Sensor video to every station that needs it.

Airborne sensor feeds cross the mesh to ground stations, aggregated across links for throughput and deadline-managed so stale frames never choke fresh ones.

Contested spectrum

Diversity does the work.

No frequency-hopping claims: when one band degrades, continuous quality scoring shifts traffic classes to links on other bands — and communications continue while any usable path remains.

Proof, with its boundary

Demonstrated at Hemus 2026.

An eight-node mixed fleet — ground-control laptops, field relays, an airborne node — ran command and video through repeated physical path cuts and injected loss, delay and jitter across four exhibition days.

Controlled link-degradation trials — no live RF jamming, no customer-deployment claim. The honesty is deliberate; it is also what your evaluators will verify first.
