Air Force Skyborg AI Takes Flight With a Kratos Drone

Air Force Skyborg AI Takes Flight With a Kratos Drone

Skyborg, an experimental Air Force system designed to use artificial intelligence (AI) to guide autonomous drones in battle situations, has taken flight for the first time. The flight is a milestone in that effort, both for the Pentagon and key contractors including Leidos Holdings (NYSE: LDOS) and Kratos Defense & Security Solutions (NASDAQ: KTOS) that are leading the charge. The Air Force conducted an April 29 test launched from Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida.
