APEX
C4ISR Unit
Command, Control and Surveillance in One Deployable Unit
APEX™ is StarForge’s rapidly deployable command and ISR system. It raises a tower carrying a 360° AESA radar and an EO/IR gimbal, detects and identifies aerial threats at ranges up to 5,000 m, and gives three operators the workstations, compute and communications to command multiple UAS assets at once. An on-board ready magazine holds 32 counter-UAS interceptors.
APEX runs on the same self-contained hybrid power as the rest of the ecosystem and is built to the same environmental rating, so command and control arrives with the first container, not after the infrastructure does.

Built to Work With Allied Systems
APEX is designed for high interoperability, with support for STANAG 4586, 5516 and 4671 and for SAPIENT, so it plugs into the sensors, effectors and command systems allied forces already run. Its on-board compute, storage and communications support multiple mission types from one unit:
- Counter-UAS
- ISR
- Loitering strike
- Logistics
- Attritable platforms
