On July 14, 2025, Google announced that it had received a $200 million contract from the General Directorate of Digital Technologies and Artificial Intelligence (CDAO) as part of the US Department of Defense. We are talking about providing AI technologies to the American military.
The contract was concluded between the Pentagon and the Google Public Sector division, a structure formed in 2022 specifically for working with authorities. The US Department of Defense will use Google's advanced AI developments, including specialized tensor accelerators (TPUs) and the Agentspace platform. These solutions are expected to enable the Pentagon to effectively address defense challenges and scale the adoption of agent AI in corporate systems to drive innovation and improve efficiency.
In addition, Google will provide the Ministry of Defense with its secure cloud infrastructure. These are, in particular, Google Distributed Cloud services, which received Pentagon from the Impact Level 6 security accreditation: the platform is suitable for working with the most confidential and classified data that is transmitted through isolated defense and intelligence networks.
This important contract testifies to the strengthening of the partnership between Google Public Sector and the General Directorate of Digital Technology and Artificial Intelligence in order to accelerate the introduction of advanced data processing, analytics and AI technologies at the federal level, Google said in a statement. |
Thus, Google continues to develop many years of cooperation with the Pentagon aimed at strengthening national security. Google previously partnered with other clients from the federal ecosystem, such as the U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force and Defense Innovation Division (DIU).[1]
