Abstract:With the significant improvement of the anti-access/area denial capabilities of adversaries, the traditional offensive weapons of the United States face critical challenges. To this end, the United States must attempt great importance to the development of manned/unmanned aerial vehicle collaborative combat technology, hoping to improve complex task management and precise cooperation capabilities using its artificial intelligence technology to deal with various threats in a highly confrontation-complex battlefield environment. This paper reviewed the concept, top-level planning and related projects of manned/unmanned aerial vehicle cooperative combat in the United States was commended and its development trend was evaluated. In the future, manned/unmanned aerial vehicle cooperative combat will develop in stronger comprehensive system confrontation, higher architecture flexibility, lower cost of system combat capability and faster generation.
