Aitech has announced the launch of a new division, Aitech Defense Solutions, LLC (ADSL), to support classified U.S. government programs.
ADSL will directly partner with prime contractors and the U.S. government to design and deliver advanced embedded computing solutions for some of the nation’s most critical defense initiatives.
The establishment of ADSL enhances Aitech’s capacity to address the unique demands of classified defense initiatives and provide specialized support and solutions for government agencies.
Pratish Shah, who previously led Aitech Defense Systems, Inc. (ADSI) for six years, will serve as general manager of the newly formed ADSL, working directly with the U.S. government on programs that require classified access. In this role, Shah will focus on strengthening engagement with classified U.S. government programs and aligning customer-specific requirements with Aitech’s engineering and program management expertise.
Shah will ensure ADSL delivers best-in-class solutions that address the rapidly evolving needs of national defense, which reflects the urgency to stay ahead of adversaries by modernizing military technology, accelerating adoption of AI-enabled systems and strengthening the U.S. defense industrial base (DIB). ADSL is currently pursuing Facility Clearance (FCL) sponsorship and expects to have clearance in place by the third quarter of 2026.
Industry veteran D. Davis joins Aitech as the new general manager of ADSI, where he will lead initiatives in AI-powered rugged embedded computing systems across sea, land, air, and space domains. Davis brings extensive experience in business development, P&L leadership, and customer execution from previous roles at defense and aerospace companies, including Leidos, BAE, Cobham, and General Dynamics.
The new leadership team, coupled with Aitech’s legacy in innovation and engineering, is intended to position Aitech to exceed the strategic objectives of its government clients, ensuring mission success and fostering trusted partnerships.
Yaron Mund, CEO of Aitech, stated, “Aitech is meeting heightened demand with a dedicated team focused on government programs. We’ve built a strong foundation in the defense industry, and this expansion allows us to meet growing requirements and carry forward the momentum of providing best-in-class rugged embedded computing and networking solutions with unparalleled customization, program management and engineering for some of the nation’s most critical missions.”
Davis commented on his new role, “I am looking forward to building on Aitech’s 40-year track record as an innovator in high-performance embedded computing solutions for military, aerospace and space missions, while advancing the next generation of AI-driven capabilities. The company’s mission-proven success coupled with expanded clearance experience underscores its unique position to support the future initiatives of key primes.”
