Airbus and Quantum Systems Progress Autonomous Swarm Technology

At the beginning of August, a demonstration took place at the Airbus Drone Center near Manching, which marked the culmination and conclusion of an intensive research phase as part of the Bundeswehr study KITU 2 (Künstliche Intelligenz für taktische UAS; Artificial Intelligence for tactical UAS). The aim of the study was to develop innovative solutions […]

China’s PLA Found ‘Shooting at Drone Swarms Challenging’ in Recent Air Defence Drills

The Chinese military, which has been testing its capabilities to counter enemy drone swarm attacks, has admitted that accurately hitting the small targets may prove difficult. A first round of anti-aircraft artillery launched against a drone swarm during a recent People’s Liberation Army (PLA) training exercise achieved only 40 per cent damage, state broadcaster CCTV […]

US Army Joint Counter-Small UAS Office Conducts Successful Counter Drone-Swarm Demonstration

The U.S. Army held its most challenging counter-small unmanned aircraft systems test to date, paving the way for Soldiers to field capabilities against small-UAS attacks in the future. During the Joint Counter-Small Unmanned Systems Office’s (JCO) fifth C-sUAS demonstration, held at Yuma Proving Ground June 3-28, 2024, testers launched more than 40 UAS targets that […]

Red Cat and Sentien Robotics Partner for UAS Hive Land, Air and Sea Drone Swarming Operations

Red Cat Holdings, Inc. , a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and software for military, government, and commercial operations, has announced a partnership with Sentien Robotics, a leader in autonomous drone fleet logistics. The partnership will enable organizations using Sentien’s Hive UAS management platforms to deploy Teal Drones as part of a larger autonomous drone […]

Hylio Gets FAA Approval for Swarming Heavy Drones in Agriculture

Farming drone company Hylio has received Federal Aviation Administration approval to deploy up to three drones weighing more than 55 pounds simultaneously with a single pilot and without visual observers, which also allows for nighttime operations. The company said the approval lays the groundwork for customers and other operators to file for the same permissions. […]

Babcock Demonstrated its SwarmCore Technology

Babcock has developed a technology with the capability of controlling single or entire fleets of vehicles in a defence environment. The company demonstrated its SwarmCore technology, an advanced software system made up of multiple networks, at the UK Ministry of Defence’s BattleLab site last week of November in Dorset. The project was created in collaboration […]

UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía Enhances Swarm and MUM-T Capabilities

UAV Navigation-Grupo Oesía knows the importance of Multi-UAV operations for many different applications. These missions enable the operation of multiple systems simultaneously working in a coordinated way. Multi-UAV is an operation in which multiple UAVs fly in the same airspace. In these missions, multiple UAS are operated from a GCS, where a single or multiple […]

Embry‑Riddle Student Research on Drone Swarm Mapping Selected to Compete at NASA Challenge

A team of Embry‑Riddle Aeronautical University students is conducting research using swarm microdrones that could change the way 3D mapping is done, especially in complex, hard-to-reach locations. “The main application is to map out GPS-denied locations and make a 3D map in a more efficient way,” said Daniel Golan, the project’s co-principal investigator and a junior […]
