Autonomy software to be integrated into uncrewed logistics aircraftNewsDan Taylor Technology Editor Military Embedded SystemsBETA’s ALIA CTOL (CX300) testbed via Lockheed MartinFARNBOROUGH, England. Sikorsky will integrate its MATRIX autonomy software into BETA Technologies’ MV250 hybrid vertical takeoff and landing aircraft for uncrewed logistics missions, the company announced in a statement. Flight testing will be used to expand the aircraft’s operating envelope and evaluate the MATRIX software alongside BETA’s flight-control system, the company says. The aircraft within BETA’s ALIA family use a common flight-control architecture, while MATRIX uses an open architecture intended to support integration with multiple aircraft systems, the statement adds. Its systems architecture follows a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA), which supported the integration of the autonomy software, according to the company.
