For use in this <em>manned-unmanned teaming<\/em> (MUM-T) were a transportable simulator of the E-2D from Northrop Grumman and the virtual pairing of an F\/A-18 with the MQ-25 from Boeing. Advanced operational concepts were tested, such as those that can be carried out by the squadrons on an aircraft carrier. These included the use of the E-2D in a command-and-control role as \"Tanker King\", while the unmanned MQ-25 had to deliver fuel to an F\/A-18 Super Hornet. In this MUM-T operation, only the existing control software was used on both the simulated E-2D and the MQ-25. The simulators involved were connected via a data link.<\/p>\n<p>\"Two of our key findings from these early demonstrations are that MUM-T is possible between an MQ-25, an E-2D and an F\/A-18 with minimal customisation and that this system is fundamentally suitable for operations with an MQ-25,\" said a Boeing engineer.<\/p>\n<p>In further tests, it was successfully demonstrated that both the E-2D and the F\/A-18 can be used to influence the drone's flight programmes. For example, the assigned area of operation or the flight route were reprogrammed remotely. In a final step, the drone could even be controlled in autonomous mode using \"traditional\" commands from the human operator. During a mission, this could significantly reduce the pilot's workload for controlling the assigned drone.<\/p>\n<p>The tests were supported and financed by the Office of Naval Research with the aim of integrating unmanned systems such as the MQ-25 as deeply as possible into future missions on an aircraft carrier.<\/p>\n<p><em>Text: mb; Photo: Boeing<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Die US-Firmen Boeing und Northrop Grumman haben im Simulator erstmals eine komplexe Zusammenarbeit zwischen menschen- und maschinengesteuerten Flugzeugen erprobt.
