Drone technology from UASFeed — autonomy, swarming, sensors, counter-jamming, FPV builds, and the engineering underneath uncrewed flight.
At the U.S. Navy's Lanternfish 2026 exercise, Ultra Maritime's Sea Spear sonar fed Anduril's Seabed Sentry and Lattice software to detect, track and classify enemy UUVs and alert operators with no human in the sensing loop.

The US Marine Corps has selected Allen Control Systems' Bullfrog M240 — an AI-driven turret that auto-aims a belt-fed machine gun at drones — for its air-defense mission on the L-MADIS vehicle, promising kills as cheap as $10.
Aboard HMS Prince of Wales during Operation Firecrest, the Royal Navy's 700X Naval Air Squadron gave the Malloy T-150B a 15 m drop-down cable to deliver 60 kg loads ship-to-ship without landing, and flew its first drone-based search-and-rescue role dropping life-rafts.
High Lander and Thirdeye are moving detect-and-avoid off the airframe and onto the ground — a passive optical radar feeding a live national UTM, tested against helicopters approaching out of the sun, and aimed squarely at the non-cooperative-traffic clause holding up Part 108.
A Rafale F4 controlled a drone carrying Dassault and Harmattan AI's new NAMIB electronic-warfare payload, which geolocated a radar dozens of kilometers away and cued a simulated strike -- an early proof point for human-machine teaming on SEAD missions.
The Space Force killed its Resilient GPS anti-jam satellite program in January 2026. Here's why it died, what M-code, GPS IIIF and CRPA anti-jam antennas are doing instead, and why the timing is brutal given jamming in Ukraine and the Middle East.
DARPA has grown its Lift Challenge to 124 teams from 20+ countries, setting up a $6.5 million heavy vertical-lift flyoff at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force in Dayton, August 2-9, with public finals August 6-9.
A University of Houston team built a peer-reviewed, hardware-tested control module that continuously watches a quadrotor's tilt and position and auto-corrects it before wind gusts or errors push it past a crash boundary.
DJI's AP100 parachute lets the Matrice 400 legally fly over crowds under EASA and UK CAA rules, deploying in under 600ms while costing only 6 minutes of flight time.
DARPA's $3.37M "Rads to Watts" award puts Morgan State University in charge of turning Strontium-90 nuclear waste into radiovoltaic power cells aimed at giving drones and satellites decades of untethered flight.
A University of Houston researcher has built a Control Barrier Function-based 'safety supervisor' that briefly seizes control of a quadrotor the instant it nears a crash boundary, then hands the drone back its task.
