Swedish Defence Company Advances AI-Powered Combat Systems
Saab has successfully tested AI agents in flight on the Gripen E multirole combat aircraft, with the agents independently controlling the fighter in simulated beyond-visual-range air combat scenarios. The company expects deployment in the Swedish Air Force within months to years. The development and testing of the agents were carried out within Saab’s advanced programmes business unit, with the entire process taking approximately two years. This development was first reported by an unknown source.
