SP Guide Publications puts forth a well compiled articulation of issues, pursuits and accomplishments of the Indian Army, over the years
"Over the past 60 years, the growth of SP Guide Publications has mirrored the rising stature of Indian Navy. Its well-researched and informative magazines on Defence and Aerospace sector have served to shape an educated opinion of our military personnel, policy makers and the public alike. I wish SP's Publication team continued success, fair winds and following seas in all future endeavour!"
Since, its inception in 1964, SP Guide Publications has consistently demonstrated commitment to high-quality journalism in the aerospace and defence sectors, earning a well-deserved reputation as Asia's largest media house in this domain. I wish SP Guide Publications continued success in its pursuit of excellence.
General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) has been awarded a $98 million contract as Lead Systems Integrator for Project Red 5. The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (OUSD) Project, run by the Test Resource Management Center (TRMC), will prototype advanced autonomous air-to-air capability to provide adversary or "red" air training profiles.
GA-ASI will operate two of its company-owned MQ-20 Avenger® Unmanned Aircraft Systems and provide mission autonomy software that integrates cutting-edge sensors, data links and other advanced mission systems. Project Red 5 will prototype full profile autonomous air-to-air missions to enable current fourth and fifth generation Blue Force fighters to train against robust, autonomous "red air" surrogate platforms.
"GA-ASI has continued to invest and deploy our open architecture autonomy ecosystem integrated with best-of-breed mission systems," said Jeff Hettick, GA-ASI vice president for Agile Mission Systems. "We are thrilled to partner with TRMC to bring these capabilities that create operationally relevant Red Air surrogates and significantly improve Blue Force mission success in realistic air-to-air training scenarios."
Project Red 5 will complement GA-ASI's continued work on Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV) initiatives, which includes autonomy and mission system tests on MQ-20 Avengers, XQ-67A developed by GA-ASI for the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), and prototype production and flight testing for the U.S. Air Force Life Cycle Management Center's Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) program.
