Research abstract
The FLEETFORGE Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) software pipeline is an adaptation of Darkhive’s internally operated REDQUEEN platform designed to build, test, secure, and deploy our UAS software capabilities to and manage large numbers of our YELLOWJACKET drone product line. Utilizing modern software development, security, and operations (DevSecOps) processes, tools, and USAF adopted platform products such as Big Bang, Party Bus, and Iron Bank from Platform One, FLEETFORGE would provide an integration mechanism for software-based advanced autonomy capabilities, new machine learning object recognition models, and collaborative swarm behaviors to be rapidly and securely deployed to fleets of USAF uncrewed air systems (UAS).
