During Operation Nanook-Nunalivut (Feb 4 to Apr 18, 2026), Dominion Dynamics deployed its AuraNet command-and-control platform with Arctic-hardened sensors, used by Canadian Rangers across the High Arctic to turn scattered communications and data into a single operating picture for mission tracking, planning, and real-time communications. The Taku counter-UAS base-defense sensor tower was deployed during the final leg. The exercise was self-funded.
