Newest sUAS technology demonstrated at Game of Drones 26-2

"Game of Drones" 26-2 player David Figaro prepares a sUAS system for launch at Edwards Air Force Base, California on June 16, 2026. Hosted by the 412th Test Wing’s Experimental Test Force, in collaboration with the Defense Contract Management Agency’s US-X unit, the event supports the Air Force Test Center’s mission to accelerate the evaluation of autonomous technologies through collaborative experimentation and rapid user feedback. These evaluations will help accelerate placement onto the sUAS Blue List, strengthening efforts to meet the Secretary of War’s Drone Dominance initiative. (U.S. Air Force photo by Brandon Hernandez)
