Skunk Works Demonstrates Airborne Battle Management of AI-Controlled Aircraft
These flight tests build on previous experiments that demonstrated AI-controlled air-to-ground jamming and geolocation. This year, the tests shifted to AI in air-to-air combat, where AI sends commands directly to the planes' autopilots. This is the third test of this type and the first to include a real-time human battle manager overseeing the AI's actions.IOWA CITY, Iowa, Nov. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Lockheed Martin Skunk Works (NYSE: LMT), in partnership with Lockheed Martin's Demonstrations and Prototypes organization and the University of Iowa's Operator Performance Laboratory (OPL), showcased a crewed-uncrewed teaming mission where an airborne battle manager issued real-time commands to AI-controlled aircraft through a touchscreen pilot vehicle interface (PVI).
愛荷華州愛荷華城，2024年11月21日 /PRNewswire/ -- 洛克希德馬丁集團（紐交所：LMT）與洛克希德馬丁的演示與原型組織以及愛荷華大學的運營商-5g表現實驗室（OPL）合作，展示了一次有人機和無人機協作的任務，其中一名空中戰鬥指揮官通過觸摸屏飛行器接口（PVI）向人工智能控制的飛機發出實時指令。
In a series of flight tests, the Skunk Works and OPL teams simulated an offensive counter air mission where an airborne, human "battle manager" aboard an L-39 Albatros assigned targets to two AI-controlled L-29 Delfin jets, which then worked together to defeat two mock enemy jets using simulated mission systems and weapons.
在一系列飛行測試中，Skunk Works和OPL團隊模擬了一次攻擊性反空中任務，其中一名空中的人類"戰鬥指揮官"在L-39 Albatros上爲兩架AI控制的L-29 Delfin噴氣機分配目標，兩者配合擊敗了兩架模擬敵機，使用模擬的任務系統和武器。
"The work we're doing with the University of Iowa's OPL is foundational for the future of air combat, where a family of crewed and uncrewed systems will work together to execute complex missions," said John Clark, vice president and general manager, Lockheed Martin Skunk Works. "We're excited to leverage our diverse skillsets to advance all elements of this new way of operating."
"我們與愛荷華大學OPL的合作爲未來的空戰奠定了基礎，在那裏，一系列有人機和無人機系統將共同執行復雜任務，"洛克希德馬丁Skunk Works副總裁兼總經理約翰·克拉克表示。"我們很高興利用我們多樣化的技能來推進這一新型作戰方式的所有元素。"

這些飛行測試建立在之前的實驗基礎上，展示了人工智能控制的空對地干擾和定位技術。今年，測試轉向了空對空戰鬥中的人工智能，人工智能直接向飛機的自動駕駛儀發送指令。這是此類測試的第三次，也是第一次包含有實時人類戰鬥指揮官監督人工智能的行動。
