Hidden Level and Moog Inc. Showcase Advanced Air Defense and Sensing Solutions at AUSA Global Force Symposium & Exposition

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama – (March 25, 2026) – This week, Hidden Level, the world’s leading RF intelligent platform, in collaboration with Moog Inc. at the AUSA Global Force Symposium & Exposition 2026, will demonstrate how integrated sensing and weapon systems are reshaping modern air defense.

Building on the momentum of Moog’s Lightweight Reconfigurable Integrated Weapons Platform (RIwP®), the companies will showcase Hidden Level’s SURGE sensor integrated directly onto Moog’s Lightweight turreted weapons system. Together, the capability underscores a more unified, multi-domain approach to countering emerging threats, where sensing and effectors operate as a single, coordinated system rather than standalone components.

“The future of air defense hinges on how precisely sensors can detect, track, and identify threats—and how seamlessly they cue the right effectors,” said Brad Garber, COO of Hidden Level. “Our work with Moog builds on capabilities we’re already delivering today to the Department of War, integrating our passive radar sensing into fire‑control workflows for Short Range Air Defense (SHORAD). By pairing our DTI strengths with Moog’s kinetic solutions, operators gain faster, more reliable targeting data and a decisive advantage in complex air defense environments.”

The Moog booth will feature two vehicles, each illustrating a core component of modern maneuver force protection. The sensing-focused vehicle will showcase Hidden Level’s SURGE sensor embedded on Moog’s lightweight turreted system, enabling passive detection and real-time tracking of both manned and unmanned aircraft. A second vehicle will highlight the weapons-focused configuration, featuring the modular RIwP® platform equipped with medium-caliber direct-fire weapons and missile effectors.

Attendees of the AUSA Global Force Symposium & Exposition 2026 can visit Hidden Level at the Moog booth at the Von Braun Center from March 24–26 to experience the integrated systems firsthand. The collaboration reflects a broader shift across the defense ecosystem toward tightly integrated, modular solutions that unify sensing, decision-making, and response to keep pace with rapidly evolving threats.

The AUSA Global Forces Symposium brings together U.S. Army leaders, government officials, academic experts, and defense industry partners to discuss the future of Army modernization, readiness, and emerging technology. Through keynote presentations, panels, and a large exhibition hall, the event highlights innovations supporting next-generation military capabilities.
