General Atomics Aeronautical – Taking Information Dominance to the Next Level
With Every New RPA Innovation, General Atomics Aeronautical Pushes the Boundaries of the Possible to Make the World Safer and More Secure.
StormShroud is designed to support UK Royal Air Force (RAF) Lockheed Martin F-35B and Eurofighter Typhoon fighter aircraft by providing suppression of enemy air defences (SEAD). It is built around the Tekever AR3 uncrewed aerial system (UAS) and Leonardo BriteStorm electronic warfare (EW) jammer payload.
US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has outlined an ambitious plan to reform, reshape and redirect the US Army in an overhaul which would see a reduction in formations and less manned attack helicopters.
The ground test phase for the Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) programme will bridge the gap between prototype design and flight, laying essential groundwork ahead of fielding the uncrewed aircraft.
The two aircraft flew more than 70 sorties in seven months and tested the system in various conditions and mission scenarios.
