Capabilities
Distributed. Forward. Connected.
The nodes extend the picture beyond a fixed site, scaling from a single unit to a network and connecting back over the NEXUS mesh.
- Distributed forward sensor nodes.
- Mesh-connected via NEXUS.
- Built mobile and forward-deployed.
- Scales from one node to a network.
- Carries VAERN or third-party sensor packages.
Where it sits
02 / CONNECTIn the decision loop.
01DetectVIGIL
Multi-sensor detection: radar, passive RF and EO/IR — VAERN's own or existing third-party sensors.
You are here02ConnectNEXUS · SCOUT
Resilient mesh links forward nodes into one network.
03UnderstandCORE
Explainable edge-AI fuses sensors and classifies tracks.
04DecideHAMMER
The operator sees one air picture and authorises the response.
05EffectPartner
Effectors integrate later via an authorised partner — effector-agnostic by design.

Figures are set per deployment — every site gets the mix it needs, and we publish no numbers we cannot stand behind.
Principle
Forward nodes widen the picture — the human authorisation stays central, at HAMMER.
