The Air Force Research Laboratory’s, or AFRL, Strategic Development, Planning and Experimentation, or SDPE, office has worked with other partners across the United States Air Force to perform operational experimentation in support of the Skyborg Vanguard. This effort was able to successfully:

1. Demonstrate the scope and scale of work which will be necessary to operationalize artificial intelligence, or AI

2. Transition a process to mature autonomy concepts through digital simulation, surrogate human-on-the-loop testing with tactical platforms, and prototype uncrewed platform flight test

In this AFRL video, members of the Autonomous Aircraft Experiment Team explain how they are taking autonomous research concepts that exist in a lab and turning them into operational realities for our nation’s warfighters.
