About Heaviside Industries
Founded in Los Angeles in 2024, Heaviside Industries develops compact autonomous precision munitions across multiple operating domains. Its disclosed portfolio includes MOTH for land-based electromagnetic signal intelligence, TYR as an autonomous aerial munition and NYX as an underwater munition. The company says its electronics and autonomy stack are designed for GPS-denied and contested environments.
Heaviside emerged from stealth in 2026 and is moving toward scaled production. Its August Series B was announced alongside a partnership under which Nammo will supply warheads for the company’s platforms, giving the programme an established munitions supplier while Heaviside expands production capacity and fulfils customer commitments.
