Swedish Defense Company Develops Autonomous Fighter Capabilities
Saab has successfully flown its own artificial intelligence agents aboard the Gripen E, demonstrating autonomous control in beyond-visual-range combat scenarios. The company’s AI Fighter Pilot Academy is central to this effort, combining agent development with training infrastructure to evaluate AI behavior. This development may have implications for future uncrewed combat aircraft and could shorten development cycles, as reported by TheDefenseWatch.com.
