British Ministry Of Defence Advances Uncrewed Air Systems Development
The UK Ministry of Defence has selected seven companies to develop prototypes for its AH-64 Apache loyal wingman program, known as Project NYX. The program aims to develop Uncrewed Air Systems capable of operating alongside the UK’s Apache attack helicopters to conduct various missions. The selected companies, including Anduril, BAE Systems, and Lockheed Martin UK, will develop prototypes, with four companies advancing to the concept demonstrator phase in March 2026. The ultimate goal is to have an operational system by 2030, as reported by AeroTime.
