Epirus, a high-growth technology company headquartered in Torrance, California, is a pioneer in advanced directed-energy systems and electronic warfare solutions for modern defense challenges. With a mission to address asymmetric threats and protect critical assets, Epirus combines cutting-edge high-power microwave (HPM) technology, artificial intelligence, and advanced electronics to deliver next-generation capabilities to military and security partners.
Electronic Warfare
At the heart of Epirus’ offerings is Leonidas, the company’s flagship solid-state, long-pulse high-power microwave system designed to counter unmanned aerial systems (UAS), including drone swarms. Engineered to integrate seamlessly with existing sensors and weapons platforms, Leonidas can provide layered short-range air defense and electronic warfare solutions. Its software-defined architecture allows performance enhancements through waveform optimization without requiring new hardware, increasing adaptability and effectiveness in evolving threat environments.
In addition to electronic warfare, Epirus is advancing air domain awareness technologies that leverage machine learning and big-data analytics to monitor, track, and classify UAS threats over large areas, providing continuous operational awareness. Its advanced electronics capabilities focus on intelligent power management, software-defined systems, and AI/ML-enhanced performance, enabling rapid innovation across defense and commercial applications.
Air Domain Awareness and Advanced Electronics
Epirus’ portfolio extends beyond traditional defense roles, encompassing both fixed and mobile electronic warfare systems that support maneuver short-range defense - for example, mounting on vehicles or vessels - as well as long-range HPM air defense to safeguard high-value assets. The company also offers compact electronic warfare solutions, such as portable HPM “Pod” units capable of deployment across diverse platforms and mission sets.
Epirus frames its work within the broader context of evolving defense needs, promoting rapid prototype development and flexible contracting approaches that accelerate concept-to-delivery timelines. By advancing solutions that address both current and future threats, the company is reinforcing its role as a strategic partner to government and security organizations seeking robust, adaptable defense technologies.
