An Initiative to Drive Uncrewed Systems Capabilities Forward through SME Engagement
Together, UST and BAE Systems are redefining and disrupting the way defence Primes interact with SMEs, to accelerate development and extend capabilities of small uncrewed systems.
BAE Systems Digital Intelligence and Unmanned Systems Technology are working together to drive uncrewed systems capabilities forward.
We’re breaking down the barriers that traditionally exist for SMEs in working with large defence Primes, to increase SME-to-Prime interaction and new technology discoverability.
Our partnership aims to extend the capabilities of small uncrewed land, marine and air vehicles via close industry collaboration.
The UST platform is a fantastic resource for industry and there’s a natural synergy with BAE Systems as we look to the future of uncrewed and autonomous systems. UST holds an incredible ecosystem of innovators and we’re excited to support and work closely with that community.
