The Space Force is flying new command and control software on experimental satellites that can automate some functions for ops crews. The new software, dubbed R2C2 for Rapid and Resilient Command and Control, is leading a wave of new applications for artificial intelligence and automation for ...
Data in Defense
Congress and small business advocates are working on a series of fixes for a new Department of Defense cybersecurity certification program they fear will otherwise be a major disincentive for smaller, nontraditional defense suppliers to bid on Air Force and other defense contracts.
The Air Force is scaling up the Joint Simulation Environment to enable large-scale mission training possible for F-35 and other combat pilots at bases all over the country and even overseas.
Military leaders see applications for artificial intelligence in everything from autonomous aircraft to logistics and cybersecurity. But scaling up from pilot programs to operational is proving to be a major hurdle.
The Pentagon nuclear command, control, and communications enterprise is decades old and desperate for an upgrade, says the head of U.S. Strategic Command, and artificial intelligence could help fortify nuclear C3 for its no-fail mission.
What keeps the digital warriors charged with fighting America's wars in space awake at night isn’t cyber attacks per se, but more nebulous threats to the integrity of their data, the chief information officer of U.S. Space Command told an industry conference.
Everyone is talking about artificial intelligence, but actual no-kidding military applications can be hard to identify. “If you have a data problem, or if you can make a problem into a data problem, it's probably a good fit for AI,” says Angela Sheffield, an internationally recognized ...
Artificial intelligence could be a force multiplier in logistics and sustainment for managing Air Force systems and technology, but there's no magic wand that can sprinkle AI dust to magically modernize legacy systems, vendors said.
Angela Shefield, Director of AI Programs at SAIC, and retired Air Force Col. John "BigDogg" Rhone, SAIC's C5ISR Programs Lead, explain how artificial intelligence and machine learning are evolving beyond bespoke applications and how SAIC is helping to enable next-generation AI capabilities for critical problem ...
