Falkonry expands AI footprint within USAF
Start-up machine learning company Falkonry has been awarded a contract by USAF innovation hub AFWERX under the Strategic Financing (STRATFI) programme, to broaden the adoption of operational AI software in the air force and across the broader DoD.
STRATFI was launched in March this year as the core strategic pillar of effective decision-making in the USAF.
Working with the Joint Warfare Analysis Center, Falkonry has already demonstrated its ELINT mining and pattern detection capabilities to USAF Air Combat Command.
Falkonry also works with the Air Force Distributed Common Ground System, which is the main ISR collection, processing, exploitation analysis and dissemination tool used by the USAF.
