# Anduril Ghost-X: Price, Availability & Status (2026)

Anduril's Ghost-X is a verified-autonomous VTOL ISR drone running Lattice, fielded under a $14.4M Army contract. Defense procurement, no consumer price.

## Price

_No verified price on record._

There is no consumer price. Ghost-X is defense procurement equipment sold to militaries on contract (the US Army selection runs under a $14.417 million ten-year indefinite-delivery contract), so DEPLOY records zero price points rather than a consumer figure.

## Availability

_Status: internal-only_

Ghost-X is sold to defense customers, not consumers. It was selected for the US Army's Company-Level small-UAS Tranche 1 (September 2024) and is being fielded to Brigade Combat Teams under the Replicator initiative, with more than 1,200 unit-hours logged across thirteen Army units.

## Status

Ghost (current Ghost-X variant) is the production-maturity anchor of the new-defense drone cohort and a verified-autonomous case, not a remotely-piloted platform dressed up as AI. It is a helicopter-style single-rotor VTOL small drone for ISR, redesigned on Ukrainian combat feedback from the 2020 Ghost 4, and it runs Anduril's Lattice autonomy: fielded onboard capability including radio-silent flight, single-operator multi-drone teaming, and automatic low-battery mission hand-off. The registry wires Ghost to the Lattice brain (not to Shield AI's Hivemind). Its verified gating events are strong: the Army Tranche 1 selection, Replicator fielding, combat use in Ukraine since 2022, and a $1 billion Ohio manufacturing facility announced January 2025.
