Navy/ONR agentic AI control of heterogeneous UAV/UGV swarms (SBIR/STTR)
Navy and ONR efforts to develop LLM-based, agentic AI architectures for natural-language command and control of low-cost COTS small UAVs and UGVs in heterogeneous swarms for Navy and Marine Corps missions, including SBIR/STTR topics such as DON27TZ02-NV011 under the DoW STTR 2027 BAA, autonomy and AI governance requirements, funding, transition to programs of record, and congressional oversight of autonomous swarm systems.
