The US Army is developing a hyperconnected network for next-generation command and control, according to Breaking Defense reports. This system aims to enable modern warfare by providing real-time data sharing in contested environments.
A federal jury has ordered Gogo Business Aviation to pay $22.7 million to SmartSky Networks for infringing patents related to air-to-ground connectivity and 5G in-flight Wi-Fi technology. The Delaware court verdict marks a significant milestone in the long-running dispute between the two business aviation connectivity rivals.
Gogo has completed flight testing and validation of its next-generation air-to-ground (ATG) 5G connectivity network, clearing the way for commercial service across the contiguous US and parts of southern Canada beginning in January 2026. The company said the test campaign included over 30 flight hours across 20 routes to verify network performance and coverage under normal operating conditions.
