🇺🇸 General Atomics LongShot program has been selected to progress into phase 2 of its development and it's on track to make the first test flight in 2024. It aims to revolutionise the aerial warfare domain with a system of air dropped ucav’s armed with air to air weaponry. Current air superiority concepts rely on stealthy manned fighters to penetrate the enemy airspace and deliver their weaponry effectively, with LongShot the manned platforms will be allowed to stay at longer stand off ranges thus improving massively their survivability and lethality. The ucavs will basically create a dynamic, cost effective, interchangeable and very hardly counterable fast moving aerial A2/AD bubble. From other programs developments we can immagine that such drones will also have modular sensor and armament suites. The company mentions that the drones will be air dropped but doesn't state which recovery method will be used, aerial recovery in the likes of an aircraft carrier Is extremely difficult even with the best possibile AI due to the dynamic nature of weather conditions, which can lead to serious problems if non optimal.

That is in addition to 155 mm artillery cluster shells that Ukraine already has requested, they said.
