About Harmattan AI
Harmattan AI is a Paris defence-tech company founded in 2024 by CEO Mouad M’Ghari that develops vertically integrated autonomous systems — including layered air defence, coordinated ISR and strike UAVs, electronic-warfare products and C2 platforms — with a software-defined autonomy stack for allied and NATO forces. The company has been awarded Programs of Record by the French and UK Ministries of Defence and reports delivering thousands of systems per month as it scales industrial manufacturing. In January 2026 Harmattan AI raised a $200 million Series B led by Dassault Aviation at about a $1.4 billion valuation, becoming a unicorn; the strategic partnership supports embedding Harmattan’s controlled autonomy into Dassault combat-air systems (including Rafale F5 and UCAS) while funding global mission expansion and production.
