Aeon
Aeon is an Austin-area defense manufacturer building low-cost, software-defined tactical missiles for U.S. and allied forces. Its flagship Zeus system is a modular, shoulder- or platform-launched guided mini-missile with swappable payloads, paired with ODIN autonomous targeting software. By vertically integrating propellant, rocket motors, fuzes and flight computers and leaning on 3D printing and AI-assisted production, Aeon aims to field precision weapons at a fraction of the traditional cost - tens of thousands of dollars per unit rather than hundreds of thousands to millions.
