Description
The US Air Force (USAF) has officially begun ground testing the YFQ-42A and YFQ-44A prototypes for the Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) programme, Chief of Staff, Gen David Allvin, announced.
The ground test assessments will focus on propulsion systems, avionics, autonomy integration and ground control interfaces, the USAF said.
“We're moving fast because the warfighter needs this capability. The programme is accelerating fielding through innovative design and acquisition strategies—and both vendors are meeting or exceeding key milestones. These aircraft will help us turn readiness into operational dominance,” Gen Allvin commented.
The USAF announced mission designations for Anduril and General Atomics Aeronautical
