Near Earth Autonomy

This April 1st, we are proud to announce Near Earth Autonomy's new solution: MMMRPHPFO (Multi-Mission Modular Re-Energizing Payload for Human Performance Factors Optimization). It's the sweet dream of a product you've been waiting for!

Near Earth Autonomy has won a U.S. Naval Air Systems Command (Navair) contract to develop autonomous flight technology for uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) operating in contested maritime environments. @AINonline ainonline.com/aviation-news/…

"Near Earth Autonomy & partners Honeywell, Moog & XP Services have completed a year of integration and flight work on the RUC-60, optionally crewed UH-60L Black Hawk converted for contested logistics missions, now preparing for mission flights through '26. insideunmannedsystems.com/near-earth-aut…

"Electric aircraft maker BETA Technologies is partnering with Near Earth Autonomy to develop uncrewed aircraft for the military, with flight testing slated to begin in the first half of 2026." reuters.com/business/autos…

First autonomous flight of a @Leonardo_live AW139 helicopter: Near Earth Autonomy’s system flew the aircraft for the @USMC ALC program in partnership with @Honeywell_Aero, showing how existing platforms can be rapidly upgraded to perform uncrewed logistics.

Near Earth Autonomy has completed the first autonomous test flight of a Leonardo AW139 helicopter for the @USMC Aerial Logistics Connector (ALC) program, in collaboration with @honeywell Aerospace and @Leonardo_live. defence-blog.com/us-marine-corp…

Best @AUVSI Xponential yet! Near Earth leaders joined an expert panel on the path to assured autonomy. It was exciting discussing our new @USArmy-funded program with @honeywell to upgrade Black Hawk into uncrewed logistics solutions. Already can't wait until next year's event!

Meet Near Earth Autonomy at Xponential 2025 next week in Houston to see how our systems enable safe, efficient uncrewed flight. 📍 Booth #4415 | 📅 May 20–22 Join our May 21 panel at 3 PM CDT: “Assured Aerial Autonomy: The Future and Right Now” xponential.org/program.cfm?se…

Near Earth Autonomy is heading to the 2025 Army Aviation Mission Solutions Summit. Visit us @ Booth #1158 to learn about our partnership with @honeywell to upgrade UH-60 Black Hawk aircraft into optionally piloted logistics systems for the @USArmy. 📅 May 14–16 | 📍 Nashville, TN

"With a $15 million contract from @USArmy, Near Earth Autonomy is to demonstrate a retrofit kit to convert UH-60L Black Hawk helicopter to uncrewed capability. The idea is to modify decommissioned UH-60Ls for autonomous contested logistics missions." aviationweek.com/defense/aircra…
