Northrop Grumman Corporation programs recently completed successful testing and demonstrations as part of U.S
AeroVironment has introduced the Switchblade 300 Sensor to Shooter Kit which enables operators to instantly transfer target coordinates from AeroVironments suite of small unmanned aircraft systems (SUAS) to the Switchblade 300 loitering missile system. "Sensor to Shooter maximizes the operators ability to see first, strike first, combining the superior intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities of AeroVironments SUAS with the precision strike capabilities of the Switchblade loitering missile system,"stated Charles Dean, AeroVironment vice president for global business development
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) will soon start testing unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) on par with human-piloted vehicles being built under the Robotic Autonomy in Complex Environments with Resiliency (RACER) program. The DARPA RACER programs goal is to develop and demonstrate autonomy technologies that enable unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) to maneuver in unstructured off-road terrain at the limit of the vehicles mechanical systems and at, or beyond, human-driven speeds and efficiencies
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has selected 10 industry and university research teams for the Enhanced Night Vision in Eyeglass Form (ENVision) program. Current night vision (NV) systems are bulky and heavy, resulting in a significant torque on the wearers neck

General Atomics used two company-owned Avenger Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), each equipped with a Lockheed Martin Legion Pod, to send long-range air threat data captured passively and fused by an advanced sensor algorithm to a Command Center. In the two-hour flight on November 18 last year, the Avengers flew over the high desert of southern California
Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII) Technical Solutions division announced successful integration of its advanced autonomy solutions with Sea Machines Robotics SM300 autonomy product. The integration of these autonomous capabilities supports complex mission planning and collaboration between unmanned systems
The South Korean Defense Science Research Institute (Korean acronym-ADD) has developed a target detection and classification system based on Hyperspectral Imaging for aerial reconnaissance using spectral information unique to objects. All objects have unique reflection characteristics according to wavelength
Russias state-owned Rostec handed over modernized A-50U long-range Airborne Warning And Control System (AWACS) aircraft to the military. The A-50U can detect fundamentally new types of aircraft, and is also capable of simultaneously tracking a greater number of targets and guided fighters than the previous modification
