Trusted by Operators, Innovators, and Allied Defense Partners Worldwide
Origins
BUILT BY WARFIGHTERS. DESIGNED FOR SPEED.
Founded by West Point graduates, former SOF operators, combat veterans, and defense procurement insiders. Our leadership has direct experience with the failures of legacy defense programs -- that experience drives every decision we make.
Frontline operators need technology that is personal, portable, and practical. No gold-plating. No feature bloat. Just tools that work when it matters.
Capability Platforms
OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS BY MISSION CLASS.
Modular design means rapid iteration. Shared components across the Matrix family reduce training burden and simplify sustainment. When one system improves, every system improves.
Reconnaissance
MATRIX SPY
Compact ISR. Rapid Deployment.
Unbox and fly in under 2 minutes. Folding carbon fiber frame collapses to backpack-portable size. Configurable as Quad, Hexa, x8 or x12 for scalable redundancy and thrust.

PILOT KIT
US Made. Blue UAS Cleared.
Modular ground control system with lightweight goggle-and-controller pairing. Compatible across Matrix and third-party platforms.
Universal control system. Required for units standardizing on Matrix architecture.
Training Systems
TRAIN ON WHAT YOU FLY.
Operators train on the same architecture they deploy.
MATRIX T
Training & Target
Designed for defeat, recovery, and rapid repair. Builds operator proficiency on the same architecture used in combat. Keeps costs low while maximizing repetitions.
MATRIX SIM
Simulator
Realistic physics, equipment modeling, and tactical scenarios. Operators train on the same control systems they will use in the field -- no hardware required.
The Matrix Architecture
ONE ARCHITECTURE.
INFINITE CONFIGURATIONS.
Built on the Powerus Matrix™ architecture -- a modular framework shared across air, sea, and autonomous logistics platforms.
A modular, open, horizontally-scaled unmanned systems framework. Matrix standardizes interfaces, power distribution, control logic, and autonomy scaffolding -- while remaining agnostic to the parts that should stay flexible.
MODULAR & SCALABLE
4,000+ configurations from a single architecture. Swap radios, payloads, autonomy modules, and airframes without vendor permission.
FIELD-REPAIRABLE
No tools, no soldering, no depot. Operators reconfigure and repair at the point of need. Solder-free, preprogrammed, and pre-tuned.
COST-PER-SUCCESS
$841 per successful outcome vs. $3,200+ global average. Optimized for mission success through ease of use and validated performance.
AMERICAN-MADE
NDAA compliant. Blue UAS cleared. Built to unlock the full potential of US manufacturing and counter near-peer threats.
Industrial Backbone
AMERICAN MANUFACTURING.DEFENSE-GRADE TRUST.
Every system is backed by a domestic industrial base designed for defense procurement workflows. From prototype to program of record, Tandem delivers at the speed and scale modern operations demand.
Domestic Manufacturing
100% US-based production through the Powerus distributed manufacturing network. NDAA compliant. No foreign dependencies.
Blue UAS Cleared
Platforms meet Department of Defense security requirements. Cleared for use across all military branches and allied nations.
Scale on Demand
200+ vendor network enables rapid scale from single units to thousands. 7-day average lead times on standard configurations.
Sustainment & Support
Full lifecycle support including spares, repairs, training, and field service. Programs, tunes, and updates delivered continuously.
Performance
IT ONLY MATTERS IF IT WORKS.
Cost-per-success is the real metric. A low-cost platform that succeeds only 25% of the time costs four times its sticker price per successful outcome.
*Based on field deployments across U.S. and allied operational environments.
