Drones lift off from uncrewed ground vehicles, a lorry drives with nobody at the wheel and an armed robot moves forward. Elbit Systems shows all three in its FUSE demonstration.

The idea is to let robots take on more dangerous work. Aircraft and ground vehicles need to exchange data and coordinate tasks. Elbit calls this approach One2Many.

Elbit says its Dominion-X software coordinates air and ground systems over a shared mission network. They can exchange information while carrying out different tasks. The company is also developing systems for use without satellite navigation.

The portfolio includes small reconnaissance drones, uncrewed escorts for armoured vehicles and kits for automating existing vehicles. Elbit wants them to operate alongside crewed units. It cites over one million operational flight hours and 100,000 autonomous driving hours across the wider portfolio. The demonstration brings several of these applications together. Elbit Systems
