Crewed-Uncrewed Teaming Achieves Gamechanging Results In Tactical Operations

The Defense Science and Technology Agency of Singapore and Airbus Helicopters have successfully concluded a HTeaming flight campaign, demonstrating the effectiveness of crewed-uncrewed teaming in enhancing situational awareness and mission safety. The campaign, which began in June 2025, used a Republic of Singapore Air Force’s H225M helicopter and a Flexrotor uncrewed aerial system to conduct simulated search and rescue missions. According to Airbus, the trials proved that a crewed helicopter can successfully access real-time data from a UAS, significantly extending the aircraft’s visual range and overall mission safety. This achievement was first reported by AeroTime.
