Keeping Control When It Matters Most Excited to announce our partnership with Crow Industries, integrating Parry Labs’ edge compute and autonomy infrastructure into their Fenris Group 2 UGVs. Unmanned systems are only as effective as their ability to operate in contested environments. Adversaries are increasingly focused on disrupting the communications that connect systems to operators. Our approach is built for that reality. If one pathway is jammed, the system automatically shifts bands to maintain connectivity, helping operators stay in control even in contested electromagnetic environments. Fenris is also integrated with GEMMI (Ground-based Edge Mission Management Infrastructure), enabling coordinated control of multiple unmanned systems across domains. Proud to support American-made systems designed to keep warfighters connected, protected, and in control.
Two Wash100 awards. One mission. Breaking the defense tech mold. Parry Labs doesn't do business as usual, and neither does our leadership. We’re proud to recognize co-founder and CEO John Parkes as a back-to-back hashtag#Wash100 Award winner. At Parry Labs, he’s focused on delivering real military capability where legacy defense often moves too slowly. His focus has always been the same: solve hard problems and get capability into the hands of operators. That mission continues to drive everything we build at Parry Labs.

The intersection of venture capital and national security is no longer niche. Parry Labs's Chief Growth Officer, Amber Walker, will moderate a Harvard Undergraduate Venture Capital Group panel at Harvard University on where things are headed across defense, cyber, and the industrial base. The conversation couldn’t be timelier. AI, autonomy, cyber, and advanced manufacturing are reshaping how capability is built, funded, and fielded. This panel brings together leaders across venture and industry to talk about what that shift actually looks like - from navigating government to scaling dual-use technologies and rebuilding critical parts of the industrial base. If you’re working in defense, investing in the space, or trying to understand where this is going, this is worth your time. Don’t miss it. Details here: https://lnkd.in/eKD6S6VC

Don't Let "Go-Fast" Kill Open Systems Headed to the Military Aviation and Air Dominance Summit this week at the Jackson Center in Huntsville? Come see Parry’s Thomas von Eschenbach in a great panel discussion on how the DoW can move fast WITHOUT closing the door on open system approaches. Here's what we're tackling: MOSA isn't a noun. It’s an adjective, an attribute of a system, and a result of an open systems design philosophy. We need to stop trying to "buy MOSA" and start building it into how we think. Openness isn't binary. It's a sliding scale focused on where the frequent change will occur. Not every system needs to be fully open on day one. Match the level of openness to the mission need and upgrade timeline. B2B partnerships can work. When industry collaborates, we get both technical feasibility AND positive business cases. Lessons learned exist, and we need to apply them. The Bottom Line: Speed and MOSA aren't enemies. They're partners. We can't afford to throw out MOSA because we're impatient or myopically focused on cost. And from a capability and life cycle cost perspective, we can’t afford to push MOSA to the right. Looking forward to the discussion. #OpenSystems #MOSA #AirDominance #ParryLabs

Delivering the Next Generation, Now Parry Labs achieved a major milestone this fall when Army xTech and T2COM’s Army Applications Laboratory selected Parry to support the Army's Transformation in Contact (TiC) initiative at Fort Hood, TX over the next 18 months following Project Overwatch's Soldier Evaluation at College Station, TX. Parry and our industry teammates deployed an integrated beyond-line-of-sight (BLoS) Command and Control (C2) node for multiple air and ground uncrewed systems (UxS) in less than five weeks. Parry's solution enabled soldiers to employ UxS payloads to develop a real-time common operating picture of the enemy situation well beyond the range of direct fire and mortar systems. Parry was one of 20 winning innovators that delivered autonomous overwatch solutions built for real-world Army missions. These technologies stood out for mission relevance, scalability, and operational impact. We're proud to be pushing the boundaries of autonomous warfare and excited to see our solution strengthen the Army of tomorrow!
