Skyryse and BAE Systems Australia have formed a strategic partnership to develop software-defined autonomous flight capabilities for both rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft. The companies plan to explore integrating Skyryse’s SkyOS flight operating system with BAE Systems Australia’s Vehicle Management System, combining Skyryse’s certifiable software architecture for piloted, optionally piloted and autonomous flight with BAE’s established autonomy technology. SkyOS will become the preferred flight operating system for their joint projects as the two companies pursue government, defense and commercial opportunities, including upgrades to existing fleets and new aircraft designs. ...

Game Aerospace has completed the first flight of its GB2, a clean-sheet single-engine airtanker developed specifically for aerial firefighting rather than adapted from an agricultural or transport aircraft. Company CEO, co-founder and test pilot Philipp Steinbach flew the prototype from Louise Thaden Field in Bentonville, Arkansas, on September 23, with Game Aerospace reporting that the aircraft performed as expected and completed the evaluations planned for the maiden flight. The composite GB2 is powered by a Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-67F and is designed to carry 1,200 gallons of water or retardant plus 400 gallons of fuel, with a maximum takeoff weight of 19,000 pounds and a fully loaded cruise speed of about 200 knots. Its tandem cockpit provides a second seat for training and other approved missions, while Garmin avionics and a GFC 600 autopilot are intended to reduce pilot workload during transit to and from fires. Game Aerospace will now expand the flight-test program as it works toward FAA Part 23 standard-category certification and production, with the company positioning the GB2 as a faster, more efficient initial-attack aircraft designed from the outset around wildfire suppression. ...
