US Navy Turns to AI to Plan Drone Swarm Missions

The US Navy has demonstrated an AI-powered planning tool designed to speed up and simplify how it prepares unmanned missions across air, surface, and subsurface domains.

Developed by engineers at the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD), the Optimized Cross Domain Swarm Sensing (OCDSS) uses simulation-driven analysis to quickly generate mission plans.

The software runs thousands of virtual scenarios to determine the best combination of platforms, sensors, and formations to meet specific objectives.
