Anytime, Anywhere, Under any Conditions

For years air combat missions were limited by a pilot's ability to operate the aircraft: environmental conditions that impeded situational awareness could result in grounding of vehicles to ensure the safety of pilots and integrity of operations.

But from the cockpit to exterior sensors, technological advancements are gradually transforming the pilot experience, enabling operations from fixed wing and rotary aircraft under nearly all conditions. It supports what Army leadership has described as supporting the fight "under any conditions."

This Defense News Whitepaper looks at the historic and present challenges to pilot situational awareness and how advances in degraded visual environment technology, augmented reality and artificial intelligence, among other areas, are enhancing capabilities even in the most austere environments for 24/7 mission capability.
