AFRL Commander’s Challenge kicks off; 2 teams entrusted to deliver low-cost solutions by year’s end

2024 Air Force Research Laboratory, or AFRL, Commander’s Challenge competitors gather for a group photo with their program manager, team mentors and other supporting staff at a kickoff event held at the Wright Brothers Institute in Dayton, Ohio, May 17, 2024. Nineteen individuals representing eight of AFRL’s technical and functional directorates, the 711th Human Performance Wing and the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center have been selected to serve on one of two teams in response to AFRL Commander Maj. Gen. Scott A. Cain’s March 2024 call for contenders in this year’s competition to develop low-cost solutions to counter and defeat slow-moving, high-altitude balloons. (U.S. Air Force photo / Gail L.
