UK Defence Innovation, part of UK Ministry of Defence, is pleased to announce Project NYX, the delivery of a Capability Concept Demonstrator (CCD) for the Land Autonomous Collaborative Platform (ACP) project. Background Project NYX is a flagship opportunity for industry to partner with Defence and shape the next generation of autonomous systems. The Army is seeking to develop an Uncrewed Air System (UAS) to pair with the Apache AH-64E attack helicopter as an ACP. The ACP will operate in a highly autonomous, "commanded not controlled" manner to perform multi-mission tasks in contested airspace, including reconnaissance, target acquisition, strike, countermeasure defeat, and integration with Launched Effects (LE). The ACP will enhance the lethality and survivability of the crewed platform and do so with a smaller logistic footprint and lower maintenance burden relative to the crewed platform. Aim The first phase of the project will be a Capability Concept Demonstrator which seeks to prove the Land ACP concept. Any prospective supplier would work collaboratively with MOD to rapidly develop and prototype the Land ACP capability, integrating autonomy software and UAS hardware with existing MOD capabilities (such as Apache AH-64E platforms) for Test and Evaluation activities linked to capability use cases. Further spiral development activity will iterate the prototype system against user performance requirements to prove the concept and provide insights and learning to inform futur...
