BAE Systems unveiled a new autonomous collaborative platform (ACP) concept at the World Defense Show (WDS) 2024 held in Riyadh from 4 to 8 February.

The conceptual unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is characterised as an attritable platform with low-observable features and will feature electrical actuation systems. The concept vehicle will be able to operate from either land or maritime environments featuring independent or synchronised action capability, in air combat.

According to BAE Systems, the concept vehicle will feature modular construction and will increase affordable combat mass for enhanced operational effect. The vehicle will have two internal bays, will allow easy storage in commercial containers, and will be capable of supporting rapid operational readiness. The potential mission applications envisaged for the concept vehicle include electronic attack; intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR); and attack.
