Funded by the EU’s European Defense Fund and led by Spanish-based multinational GMV, PRECISE will use AI to analyze satellite imagery and recreate 3D models of critical sites.
“You click a big button and in two minutes, you get one of these [high-powered computing] systems ready to go," Matthew Shaxted, co-founder and CEO of Parallel Works, told Breaking Defense of a new DIU initiative.

"I can't give you the specific numbers yet, but we are investing in developing what I'm loosely calling an operational test and training infrastructure," Chief of Space Operations Gen. Chance Saltzman told reporters at a roundtable today.
The new simulation environment will use 'digital twins' to rapidly test and iterate "collaborative autonomous networked technologies," AFRL explains.
In new simulations, Gen. Paul Funk says, “we’re trying to replicate downtown Baghdad to the window, to the door knob.” How do you simplify masses of data so soldiers can use it for practical training?
The first class of trainee pilots to use the new technology — and the more individualized instruction it allows — are making rapid progress, Navy officials say.
Partnerships with outside industry are a cornerstone of the kingdom’s ambitious growth strategy.
“Data is the new oil for the international economic order,” Alan Shaffer, a top Pentagon acquisition official, told the annual ITSEC training and simulation conference.
Future multi-domain combat will be so complex and long-ranged that the military will rely heavily on simulations to train for it, because battles have become too big for real-world training ranges.
A new training network will simulate the effects of weapons — from mortars and grenades to, potentially, germ warfare — and tell troops if they’re “killed” or “wounded,” then play the whole exercise back for AI analysis. One Army engineer told us: “We’ve never been able to train this stuff, never.”
In DARPA-Army experiments, soldiers tried to micromanage their drones and ground robots, slowing their reaction times and restricting their tactics. Can AIs earn troops’ trust?
On today’s battlefield, mobility isn’t optional - it’s mission-critical.
The popular game offers an arena for AI to practice working with humans in an environment where there's no real-world risk of casualties.
A simulated infantry platoon, reinforced with drones and ground robots, repeatedly routed defending forces three times its size — without losing a single human soldier. Would this work in real life?
Bell's snazzy new demonstration center may be the future of how defense contractors pitch their tech to Pentagon and congressional staff.
Four military installations, yet to be named, will host experiments in VR training, tracking supplies in “smart warehouses,” and – most importantly – sharing scarce spectrum.
