Gaxos.ai Inc. has acquired a 19.99% stake in America First Defense, a U.S.-based defense technology company developing next-generation drone and robotics platforms. This investment expands Gaxos.ai's exposure to American-owned defense innovation and aligns with its strategy to build a diversified portfolio of AI-driven businesses across high-growth sectors. The acquisition represents Gaxos.ai's continued expansion into defense applications of artificial intelligence, positioning the company at the intersection of artificial intelligence and national security technology, two sectors experiencing significant growth and government investment.
America First Defense focuses on two primary technology platforms: a detachable counter-drone system designed to neutralize hostile unmanned aerial vehicles through precise protocol-level cyber attacks, and a biomimetic soft robotics platform engineered for low-detection ground and subsurface operations. These technologies target demand from U.S. defense, homeland security, border security, maritime security, municipal safety and critical infrastructure operators. The specific technologies developed by America First Defense address growing concerns about drone threats to national security and critical infrastructure, while the soft robotics platform offers potential applications in surveillance, reconnaissance, and hazardous environment operations where traditional robotics might be detected or compromised.
