The U.S. Air Force may fund the integration of its Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS) with the Honeywell Primus Epic Phase 7 Flight Management System carried on the Boeing/Leonardo MH-139A Grey Wolf ...
The Indian government updates aircraft accident investigation rules to include drones and remote-piloted aircraft, enhancing ...
It’s the stuff of science fiction: walk out to your airplane, strap in, and, instead of a control wheel and assortment of dials and levers, you are presented with a slender device resembling an iPad.
Why this matters The U.S. Air Force’s Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) effort is finally in the air with both industry prototypes now flying. Anduril’s jet-powered YFQ-44A logged its maiden flight ...
