U.S. tech company Anduril is pitching two drone types to accompany Poland's envisioned fleets of F-35 fighter jets and Apache attack helicopters.

During the recent Project Convergence Capstone 6, an H-60M Black Hawk crew employed an Altius-700 Air-Launched Effect to autonomously find the target, pass data across the formation, and strike. As explained by Sikorsky in an interview at Farnborugh International Airshow last month, a major focus of Armed Black Hawk’s development is on air-launched effects (A-LE): […]

Exercise with Anduril YFQ-44A and General Atomics YFQ-42A is helping define how the future combat drones can be controlled, maintained and rapidly returned to the air
The first Ohio-built Fury has left Anduril’s production line as General Atomics begins manufacturing its competing FQ-42A.

Anduril's YFQ-44A Fury drone recently destroyed a target proving its capability, yet a human must remain in the loop for future operations.
