Anduril Industries has announced plans to acquire ExoAnalytic Solutions, a move expected to significantly expand Anduril’s space surveillance and tracking capabilities for national security customers.
Financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. Once completed, the deal will more than double Anduril’s space-focused workforce, increasing it from about 120 employees to more than 250 after integrating ExoAnalytic’s 130-plus staff.
The acquisition strengthens Anduril’s capabilities in space situational awareness (SSA)—the monitoring and tracking of satellites, debris and other objects in orbit—an increasingly critical component of defense space operations.
“Ultimately we believe the department deserves the best catalog of everything going on in space,” said Gokul Subramanian. “We want to be part of that solution for the warfighter.”
ExoAnalytic operates a global network of more than 400 telescopes used to track satellites and other orbital objects. The company provides classified tracking, modeling and simulation services to the United States Department of Defense.
Anduril already provides SSA services to the United States Space Force, including work under a five-year $99.7 million contract awarded in 2024 to support improvements to the Space Surveillance Network.
Under the deal, ExoAnalytic will be fully integrated into Anduril rather than operated as a subsidiary, meaning its engineers will work directly on Anduril projects. However, the company will continue to offer ExoAnalytic’s existing services to external customers.
The acquisition reflects the growing importance of space domain awareness technologies as governments seek better monitoring of increasingly crowded orbital environments.
