CoT/XML protocol server compatible with ATAK, WinTAK and iTAK. Real-time messaging, role-based access control and browser-based interface — no client install required.
Real-time tactical map dashboard with multi-layer support: satellite, terrain, hybrid and dark military. Live overlays for ATAK units, aircraft and vessels with heatmap visualization.
Full 3D terrain visualization powered by Cesium. Switch between 2D/3D with terrain elevation, camera tilt/rotation and real-time rendering of ATAK markers, ADS-B aircraft and AIS vessels.
ADS-B air tracking (OpenSky, ADSB.lol), AIS maritime vessels, satellite tracking (N2YO) and ACLED conflict dataset integration — all fused into a single common operating picture.
Embedded AI tactical assistant supporting local models (Ollama/TinyLLaMA) and cloud APIs (Claude, GPT-4). 15-minute rolling memory, operational summaries and real-time intelligence assistance.
Real-time UAV video streaming via RTSP, WebRTC, HLS and RTMP. SDK support for DJI, Autel and Skydio — integrated directly into the tactical map.
13 integrated capability modules covering the full spectrum of tactical operations — from TAK server infrastructure to AI-powered intelligence and 3D visualization.
Complete TAK server with CoT/XML protocol, compatible with ATAK, WinTAK and iTAK. Multi-client handling, role-based access control, browser-based interface and Linux-based deployment with no hardware dependency.
Real-time tactical map dashboard with multi-layer map support — satellite, terrain, hybrid, and dark military. Live overlays for ATAK units, aircraft and vessels, plus heatmap visualization for pattern-of-life analysis.
Full 3D terrain visualization powered by Cesium. Seamlessly switch between 2D and 3D modes with terrain elevation view, camera tilt/rotation and real-time rendering of ATAK markers, ADS-B aircraft and AIS vessels.
Real-time tracking of all connected ATAK devices with callsign tracking, team color assignment, CoT classification, IP and position logging, and connection status monitoring. Admin controls to block or remove clients.
Unified intelligence across air (ADS-B via OpenSky, ADSB.lol, Exchange), maritime (AIS vessel tracking), space (satellite tracking via N2YO) and conflict intelligence via ACLED dataset integration.
Real-time UAV video streaming via RTSP, WebRTC, HLS and RTMP protocols. SDK support for DJI, Autel and Skydio drones, with feeds integrated directly into the tactical map view.
Upload and manage KML/KMZ and GeoJSON layers with large dataset handling (100k+ features). Full layer control including toggle visibility and push to specific ATAK clients.
Upload and distribute KML, KMZ, ZIP and GeoJSON packages to ATAK clients. Automated workflow: upload → store → CoT alert → ATAK download, with HTTP package server, CoT notifications and audit logs.
Built-in OSINT module with Shodan integration for IP cameras, SCADA/ICS systems, remote access services and network devices. Designed for reconnaissance workflows and geospatial mapping of exposed infrastructure.
End-to-end mission creation and tracking with waypoint marking, GPS coordinate input, CoT broadcasting and mission association. Full activation/deactivation and mission tracking controls.
Draw tactical elements on the map including markers, zones and paths. Features include distance measurement, named markers, CoT broadcast of drawn elements and mission-linked drawing for operational planning.
Geospatial operational control with range rings, threat zones and geofencing. Custom radius input, entry/exit alerts, CoT zone broadcast. Useful for perimeter control, training environments and restricted zones.
The most significant addition to HAVOCTAK v3.0. HAVOC CORE is an embedded AI tactical assistant that operates directly within your operational environment. Supports local models via Ollama/TinyLLaMA for fully offline operation, as well as cloud API integration with Claude and GPT-4. Features 15-minute rolling memory for contextual awareness, automated operational summaries, situation reports, event awareness and intelligent interpretation of aircraft and vessel tracking data. Configurable AI personas adapt to your operational context, making HAVOC CORE a true real-time intelligence assistant.
Full ATAK and WinTAK client provisioning, certificate management and granular user access control.
Custom data package creation and distribution — maps, icons and mission data pushed to all connected clients.
Custom geospatial overlays including infrastructure, terrain and custom intelligence layers rendered in real-time.
Automated Cursor-on-Target message generation pushed from live OSINT and SIGINT sources directly to operators.
Full certificate-based encryption and mutual authentication for all TAK communications and server endpoints.
Resilient TAK mesh configuration enabling peer-to-peer CoT relay across fragmented or degraded network environments.
Shodan-sourced infrastructure data packages with geospatial tagging ready for TAK deployment.
Tailored geospatial data sets built to mission requirements with TAK-native formatting.
Extended military symbology and custom icon packages for ATAK and WinTAK clients.
Fused geospatial intelligence combining ADS-B, AIS, Shodan and SIGINT into unified overlays.
This isn't a standard beta. We're looking for experienced operators, researchers, and tacticians to stress-test HAVOCTAK v3.0 under real-world conditions — pushing platform efficiency, stability, and field reliability to their limits.
Your role is to find failure points, document edge cases, and report back. You'll work directly with our development team to shape what ships in the next version of HAVOCTAK before it reaches general deployment.
Evaluate platform throughput, latency and responsiveness under live operational tempo with multiple concurrent data streams.
Run extended sessions to surface memory leaks, connection drops and edge-case failures that only emerge under sustained load.
Deploy HAVOCTAK in live operational scenarios and report on how the platform performs against actual mission requirements.
Submit structured reports and participate in direct feedback sessions with the core OBSECURITY development team.
