NewsMarch 21, 2014
WARSAW, POLAND. Lockheed Martin has teamed up with Warsaw Polytechnic to conduct an advanced applied research program in the field of integration between manned and unmanned airborne platform systems.
The research program will mainly be run by university research students, and focuses on the optimization of multiple systems within aircraft and ground station networks, and enhancing capabilities. This program cultivates some recent advancements in aircraft technologies that automate flight planning and coordinate search, locate, and track missions across an array of both manned and unmanned aerial platforms. Lockheed Martin will assist in the enhanced development of Warsaw Polytechnic's unmanned airborne platform assets and simulation systems to support university software development.
"Our mission is to develop practical solutions that will apply in the management of Polish defense capabilities and significantly affect the development and future of science in Poland," says Warsaw Polytechnic Professor and scientific manager of the project, Janusz Narkiewicz.
