LEONARDO LAUNCHES FUTURE FIGHTER AI CHALLENGE

摘要

Leonardo has kicked off a new competition to unearth novel AI technologies for future air combat. Run in collaboration with the MOD, the Combat Air Artificial Intelligence Challenge is seeking applications from SMEs, start-ups and academia. Winners could receive funding for six-month pilot projects, with the potential to continue working with Leonardo. The company hopes the competition can feed into Leonardo's involvement with the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP) to develop a new fighter jet for the UK, Italy and Japan by 2035.
