How the Drone Dominance Program Is Changing Modern Warfare | Aviv Shapira

Описание: Drone Dominance Program (DDP), Artificial Intelligence, and software-defined robotics are transforming the future of modern warfare. In this video, XTEND CEO Aviv Shapira explains why the biggest shift in defense isn't just new drones—it's the move toward software-driven autonomous systems.
The U.S. Department of Defense's Drone Dominance Program (DDP) represents a fundamental change in how autonomous systems are developed, deployed, and scaled. Rather than focusing on individual platforms, the program encourages an open ecosystem where companies collaborate to accelerate innovation, reduce costs, and rapidly deliver new capabilities.
Aviv also discusses how Artificial Intelligence is fundamentally changing defense development cycles. Tasks that once required months—or even years—of software development can now be completed in days, dramatically increasing the pace of innovation on the battlefield.
As robotics become increasingly software-defined, competitive advantage will depend less on hardware alone and more on the ability to continuously update, adapt, and improve autonomous capabilities through software.
