- The 101st Airborne Division just tested Northrop Grumman’s Lumberjack autonomous attack drone during Operation Lethal Eagle.
- The system uses Palantir’s Maven Smart System to autonomously detect, analyze, and recommend targets in real time.
- Demonstrated capabilities include adaptive targeting, autonomous strike execution, and multi-platform launch (ground + air).
Why it matters:
This is a clear step toward human-machine teaming at the tactical edge, where AI is directly influencing real-time strike decisions—not just ISR.
