Shield AI is an American defence technology company founded in 2015 that builds autonomy software and uncrewed aircraft for military missions.

Headquartered in San Diego, California, the company fields the V-BAT vertical take-off aircraft with United States and allied forces, licenses Hivemind to other manufacturers and is developing the X-BAT jet for high-end missions.
