Merlin Pilot specializes in developing AI-enabled autonomous flight systems for various aircraft types, including turboprop and rotorcraft. The technology integrates high-assurance flight controls with machine learning algorithms, ensuring safety and reliability. The certification program adheres to military and civil aviation standards, encompassing comprehensive testing and validation processes. The focus is on creating aircraft-agnostic solutions for both national security and commercial applications.
RSF defines a common language for robot service capability, lifecycle operations, certification pathways, and service-provider networks.
Cross-domain robotics is reshaping modern warfare as drones, UGVs, AI targeting systems, and autonomous logistics converge into a single networked kill chain across land, sea, air, and software.
ByThomas Siew May 16, 2026Anduril’s YFQ-44A Fury flew its first semi-autonomous mission on 31 October 2025 — 556 days from contract to flight. By February 2026 it was carrying live missiles and swapping autonomy software mid-flight. China’s Jiutian drone mothership flew on 11 December 2025, capable of releasing over 100 loitering munitions from its internal bay at 15,000 metres. And the U.S. Air Force is standing up its second experimental one-way attack drone unit for mid-2026. This article maps the most consequential aerial autonomous systems competition in history: the CCA programme that will determine U.S. air dominance in the 2030s, the Valkyrie’s surprising rebirth, the A-GRA open-architecture breakthrough, and the Chinese drone mothership that has no Western equivalent.
