The future Collaborative Combat Aircraft needs to enable air forces to reliably and cost effectively do more and adapt to evolving threats. That’s why #GambitUAS is changing the game with its leading common core design, which yields 4 unique configurations. #AFAColorado 1/6
Gambit 1 is a nimble sensing platform designed for long endurance. It can accompany other unmanned aircraft or join with human-crewed aircraft on the leading edge of a strike package, serving as the initial eyes and ears for the air group. 2/6
Gambit 2 adds air-to-air weapons. This Gambit variant has less endurance than its pure reconnaissance sibling, but it makes up for that with the ability to hold even advanced hostile aircraft at risk. 3/6
Gambit 3 is optimized for a complex adversary role. It will support training exercises against some of the most capable U.S. systems, including integrated air defense systems and current 5th-gen tactical air assets. 4/6
Gambit 4 is a combat reconnaissance-focused model with no tail and swept wings. The aircraft is optimized for long-endurance missions of a specialized nature, leveraging low-observable elements and other advanced systems for avoiding enemy detection. 5/6
Using rapid commercial production techniques, like those seen in the auto industry, each Gambit variant will share a common core, or chassis, to ensure reliability and lower production costs. 6/6
