DARPA's AI-flown fighter jet autonomy program enters Phase 2
Briefly

The DARPA Artificial Intelligence Reinforcements (AIR) program seeks to enhance the autonomy of F-16 fighter jets for multi-ship missions beyond visual range. It follows learnings from the Air Combat Evolution trials and involves developing algorithms for real-time tactical execution in complex environments. An $11.3 million contract modification has been awarded to Systems & Technology Research as the project advances to its second phase. The program focuses on creating innovative models that improve with more data, indicating significant advancements in military aviation technology for future combat scenarios.
