Veronte Autopilot 6.14: a step forward in Drone technology
Veronte Autopilot 6.14 introduces a suite of powerful enhancements across its ecosystem, ensuring compliance with aircraft certifi cation standards and greater effi ciency and fl exibility for autonomous vehicle operations.
Key improvements include the enhancement for the management of multiple datalinks simultaneously, a centralized hub for Veronte applications, and new programming features in PDI Builder. Additionally, the update ensures compatibility with the latest version of X-Plane, enhanced geocaging capabilities, and advanced telemetry analysis tools. These innovations solidify Veronte’s position as a leader in autopilot systems, meeting the demands of UAS operations.
AUVSI Calls for Urgent FMS Reform to Strengthen Allied Access to U.S. Uncrewed & Autonomous Systems
In formal testimony submitted today to the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC), the Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) called for urgent reform of the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) process and outdated export control regimes.
As uncrewed and autonomous systems reshape the future of warfare and deterrence, the current export framework is struggling to keep pace. Delays and outdated restrictions are weakening defense cooperation and leaving strategic gaps that competitors like the People’s Republic of China (PRC) are eager to exploit with subsidized, unsecured alternatives.

Autopilot hardware redundancy: essential for critical missions
Hardware redundancy in autopilots is an architecture that enhances the reliability and robustness of control systems in unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The design of a system with hardware redundancy ensures that the system will not have a single point of failure, and thus, ensures mission continuity. One of the key advantages of hardware redundancy in critical control systems is the ability to continue the mission under the same conditions, making it suitable for both fail-safe and fail-operational missions.

AUVSI Announces Certification of Additional Green UAS Components
This week, AUVSI announced the addition of 4 products to the Green UAS component cleared list. This follows the recent certification of a new UAS platform as Green, which also assessed the platform’s included components: CubePilot Cube Purple and Cube Blue flight controllers, Ardupilot Arducopter software, and Panasonic Toughbook Ground Control Station.
NAVAIR Selects Near Earth Autonomy for USMC Aerial Logistics Connector Program
Pittsburgh, PA – [July 12th, 2024] – NAVAIR has selected Near Earth Autonomy (Near Earth) to lead one of the teams demonstrating optimized logistics using rotorcraft for the U.S. Marine Corps’ Aerial Logistics Connector (ALC) program through an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) under the Naval Aviation Systems Consortium (NASC). In collaboration with industry leaders Leonardo and Honeywell, Near Earth will showcase advanced autonomy on the Leonardo AW139 helicopter to provide logistical support during expeditionary operations in contested environments. The AW139, renowned for its versatility in defense, medical rescue, law enforcement, and energy operations worldwide, combined with Near Earth’s logistics mission autonomy system, will be the centerpiece of this program.
EASA Approves ETSO Certification Basis for Veronte Autopilot
EASA, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency, has approved the certification basis for the Veronte Autopilot, making it the first guidance and flight control system for UAS and eVTOL to undergo an ETSO-C198 certification process.
Embention and Eanan Forge a Strategic Alliance for UAE’s Unmanned Aircraft Growth under a Joint Venture with an initial investment of USD 5 million.
