Craig Milliard, Xwing flight test manager, briefs U.S. Air Force Col. Lucas Teel, 4th Fighter Wing commander, about Xwing's autonomous flight capabilities from its ground control station during exercise AGILE FLAG 24-1 at McClellan Airfield in Sacramento, California, Jan. 26, 2024. AFWERX Autonomy Prime invited exercise participants to watch Xwing demonstrate how autonomous aviation can contribute to the Agile Combat Employment concept. Xwing's autonomous aircraft was used during Agile Flag to move cargo to and from March Air Reserve Base, California, and McClellan Airfield. Xwing's autonomous flight technology allows its aircraft to taxi, takeoff, fly to a destination, avoid airborne and ground threats, and land, without any human input.
