Right sized for the fight, smaller Group 2 drones are solving for the limitations of larger UAS

It’s fuel cells, not batteries, that let Group 2 unmanned VTOLS fulfill many missions of larger Group 3s.

Processor upgrades enable computing at the edge

Avoiding vendor lock and providing more room for sensors and upgrades are critical considerations.

Edge computing fails when the mission hardware can’t evolve

The payoff is quicker tech insertion, avoiding vendor lock, and more room for autonomy, sensors, weapons, and mission growth.

How drones can navigate without GPS 

Absolute positioning is critical in contested and denied environments.

3D vision is redefining how drones navigate without GPS

As “dirty” RF and contested environments proliferate, autonomy increasingly depends on resilient positioning.

Answering the demand signal to move faster, field sooner, iterate continuously

As threats rapidly evolve, digital engineering, manufacturing capacity and robust supply chains are critical to meeting challenges.

The new battlespace will “hyperconnect” radios, 5G, troposcatter, and SATCOM

Enabling next-generation command and control with the same radio waveforms that were designed a decade-or-longer ago is a non-starter.

Breaking the Pentagon’s new bottleneck of time

As threats evolve, the winning model ties digital engineering to manufacturing capacity and a reindustrialized supply chain.

AI is transforming pilot training and the aircraft they fly

Modeling and simulation get an AI upgrade for more realistic training and improved autonomous platforms.

The network transport layer is the backbone of next-generation command and control

Hybrid communications requirements will shape the Army’s data infrastructure of the future.

Real-time testing and iteration help the Army keep pace with threats

Ability to reconfigure avionics on the fly allows for faster, better development of crucial capabilities.

AI in the loop: Transforming military training and system design through smarter simulation

CAE and General Atomics use AI to enhance warfighter readiness, refine aerospace platforms, and learn from simulations.

Next-generation C2 won’t be next-gen without the network transport

The network transport architecture for NGC2 could be a hybrid approach that combines high assurance communications with 5G, WiFi, and multi-orbit satellites.

Developing American-made propellants needed for long-range fires

The industrial base is building the infrastructure needed to secure domestic production of artillery shells.
