Engineering Survivability. Building Mission-Ready Technology.
Pelican Defense Technologies develops advanced microelectronic, materials, RF, and diagnostic systems for defense and aerospace applications. We turn high-end research into real hardware—radiation diagnostic chips, survivability materials, micro- and nano-scale sensors, RF antennas, MEMS devices, embedded diagnostics, and integrated testing architectures.
From concept to fieldable capability, Pelican delivers complete technology solutions, not just prototypes. Our teams design, fabricate, integrate, and test components and subsystems that must perform reliably in extreme radiation, thermal, electromagnetic, and environmental conditions.
Where We Add Value
- Radiation testing & embedded diagnostics for space and survivability programs
- Microfabricated devices & MEMS for sensing, monitoring, and advanced system architectures
- Nanostructured materials & coatings for survivability, shielding, sensing, and anti-tamper
- RF systems & compact antennas, including HEMP-resilient and directed-energy applications
- Advanced materials engineering for aerospace structures and mission-critical hardware
- Prototype-to-production transition with rapid fabrication and integrated testing
Our customers include the Department of Defense, intelligence agencies, national laboratories, allied partners, and a growing commercial sector.
