Le français Aura Aero a lancé des travaux préliminaires en vue de développer un drone de combat collaboratif
Anduril just landed the deal to build America's first robot fighter jets.
But a WSJ investigation found the company's other AI weapons had been quietly falling apart.
A Fury unmanned fighter suffered engine damage in a 2025 ground test — cause traced to a nail in the intake. In Ukraine, Altius hit only 10-15% under Russian jamming — pulled by 2024.
The Air Force still picked Anduril for the first CCA drones.

Lockheed Skunk Works unveiled Vectis — a stealthy, autonomous "loyal wingman" drone to fly alongside F-22s, F-35s and next-gen crewed fighters. Their swing back after losing CCA Increment 1 to Anduril and General Atomics in 2024.
Williams turbofan, 1,000+ nm range, 2+ hr endurance. Internal bay for AIM-120 AMRAAMs plus SDBs. Target cost around US$20M a tail. Prototype in build at Palmdale; first flight 2027.

The US Air Force has picked its first AI wingmen. Anduril and General Atomics both won production contracts on June 17.
Their drones — Fury and Dark Merlin — are semi-autonomous. They fly alongside crewed fighters, taking risks a pilot shouldn't.
Each one is under $30M a tail. About a third of an F-35. Anduril's Fury went from first flight to serial production in under two years.
Air Force wants 150 in the air by 2030.
