Developing autonomous aerial logistics systems that enable an ad hoc decentralized infrastructure-free logistics network, so that goods can be distributed at the speed of need....while adding a new layer of resiliency to our national and economic security.
Military and civilian logistics operators increasingly face environments where roads, ports, and airfields are compromised due to contested environments and natural or man-made disasters. Existing logistics solutions are personnel-intensive, slow to deploy, and constrained by infrastructure, creating operational risk and delaying sustainment, recovery, and response.
