Chad Russell, left, AFWERX Prime flight test engineer, greets Maj. Gen. David Lyons, 15th Air Force commander, during AGILE FLAG 24.1 at McClellan Airfield in Sacramento, California, Jan. 31, 2024. AFWERX , the innovation arm of the Department of the Air Force, briefed Lyons about Autonomy Prime, the newest innovation branch focused on the development and implementation of emerging autonomous technologies. Lyons also watched autonomous flight demonstrations from two AFWERX partners, Reliable Robotics and Xwing Inc., to see how autonomous aviation can contribute to the Agile Combat Employment (ACE) concept, which is to disperse aircraft and equipment between major hub bases and smaller airfields to improve resilience and survivability.
