ONBOARD AI FOR MODERN DEFENSE
AENEA builds compact terminal guidance modules for uncrewed aircraft — camera, computer, and software in one.
The link can drop. The precision holds.
AFA-1 integrates hardware and software to perform onboard AI in EW-contested environments — a platform that enables visual navigation, last-mile targeting, and mission autonomy, even in the event of communication loss.
- Locks on from
- 500 m
- Accuracy at impact
- ≤1 m
- Guides onto objects moving up to
- 85 km/h
- Holds the aimpoint in wind up to
- 12 m/s
Stationary or moving
Designed to guide onto stationary and moving objects, leading a moving object rather than chasing it as the range closes.
Operates even when the link drops
Terminal guidance runs onboard from the module's own camera. It uses neither GNSS nor the control link, and is designed to continue through jamming of either.
Onboard vision guidance
Camera and compute in one enclosure. Guidance is computed there — not on the ground, and with no imagery streamed away for processing.
Zero emission. No footprint.
Terminal guidance is passive. The module receives, and transmits nothing of its own.
