Why Autonomy is Not a Monolith for the Army

from Aerospace & Defense Technology Hosted by SAE Media Group

As the U.S. Army reshapes how it develops, acquires, and fields autonomous systems, military leaders are increasingly emphasizing that autonomy is not a one-size-fits-all capability. New organizational changes, including the establishment of the Army's Futures and Autonomous Systems Command (FASCOM), reflect a broader effort to accelerate robotics adoption while aligning technology development with mission-specific requirements. On this episode of the Aerospace & Defense Technology Podcast, we feature remarks from an AUSA 2026 panel discussion on integrated autonomy in warfighting. Dr. Alexander Miller, Chief Technology Officer, U.S. Army, and BG Anthony Gibbs, Capability Program Executive for Mission Autonomy, U.S. Army, discuss how the Army is approaching autonomous systems development, acquisition strategies, force structure changes, and the evolving role of robotics across future militaryoperations.
