Autonomous aviation transforms logistics during AGILE FLAG 24-3 exercise

Craig Milliard, Joby flight test lead, gives a demonstration to Col. Kevin Hicok, 20th Fighter Wing commander, about their autonomous flight capabilities in the Joby ground control station during AGILE FLAG 24-3 at Mojave Air and Space Port, Calif., Aug. 5, 2024. AFWERX Autonomy Prime invited Joby to conduct autonomous flight demonstrations during AGILE FLAG and show Air Force leaders how autonomous aviation can contribute to the Agile Combat Employment, or ACE, concept. ACE is a proactive and reactive operational scheme of maneuver executed within threat timelines to increase survivability while generating combat power. (U.S. Air Force photo/Matthew Clouse)
