Radiant wins $750M Army reactor

Radiant secured a $750 million U.S. Army contract to supply 15 portable microreactors under the Janus program, one of the clearest signs that advanced nuclear is moving from startup pitch decks into government procurement. The military wants resilient power for bases and forward operations where diesel logistics are expensive, vulnerable and operationally constraining. Portable reactors could also become a reference market for civilian customers such as data centers, mines and disaster-response networks that need dense, reliable electricity. The deal matters for tech because AI infrastructure is intensifying power demand, and military validation may accelerate investor and regulator confidence in compact nuclear systems.
