Shield AI says Hivemind flew CCAs through air-combat maneuvers

Shield AI said that on Oct. 26 its Hivemind software flew multiple U.S. Air Force Collaborative Combat Aircraft in formation and through beyond-visual-range counter-air maneuvers. Air & Space Forces Magazine reported the aircraft were two Anduril FQ-44As at the Nevada Test and Training Range, with a ground operator giving direction and no pilot in the air. The threat was virtual. Shield said an Oct. 8 flight had an F-22 pilot direct a single FQ-44A.
