General Dynamics Land Systems and Primordial Labs described a master teaming agreement intended to bring natural language command and control to ground combat vehicles. The effort centers on how vehicle crews would interact with onboard systems.
The agreement focuses on integrating software into the General Dynamics Land Systems portfolio, so crews can direct vehicle actions based on stated goals, objectives, and constraints. Primordial Labs said the approach is designed to reduce reliance on menu navigation and dedicated operator stations in routine task execution.
Primordial Labs will provide its Natural Language Command and Control (NLC2) software, described as Anura. The software is intended to enable crews to direct onboard vehicle systems by stating intent, and the PR described integration with subsystems such as sensors, displays, communications, and uncrewed systems. The PR said Anura runs entirely at the edge with no cloud reachback, including in communications-denied environments.
Primordial Labs said it would expand the integration of Anura across vehicles in the General Dynamics Land Systems portfolio. Lee Ritholtz, CEO of Primordial Labs, said, “Our customer has made it very clear that the formations of the future are dynamic. Platforms are increasingly software-defined and incorporate advanced on-board and off-board robotics. The Army has a need for any soldier, in any formation, to intuitively control any system. We built Anura to help our customers realize this vision through reduced cognitive, physical, and training burden,” said Lee Ritholtz, CEO of Primordial Labs. “Anura is the interface that empowers a small armored crew to seamlessly interact with everything from on-board mission systems to uncrewed teammates. Partnering with GDLS puts Anura on the platforms that define America’s armored force. Together, we’re delivering the dynamic formations the Army and Marine Corps need.” Keith Barclay, vice president and general manager of U.S. operations at General Dynamics Land Systems, said, “Our partnership with Primordial Labs and the integration of Anura onto platforms such as the Abrams tank and our next-generation combat vehicles are about giving any soldier, in any formation, the ability to intuitively command complex systems. Together, we are transforming combat vehicles into adaptable, AI-enabled teammates and delivering the human‑machine collaboration our customers need.”
Forward-looking statements in the release were not separately detailed beyond describing plans for expanding Anura integration across General Dynamics Land Systems vehicles.
