Description
COMBAT REFUELING AND OPERATIONS NETWORKED UNIVERSAL SYSTEMS (CRONUS) - RELATIVE NAVIGATION (RELNAV)
Score Rationale
CRONUS-RELNAV is a relative navigation system for refueling operations—a classical aerospace control problem with no explicit AI/ML techniques named in the title or description; any ML involvement would be subsidiary to guidance/navigation/control engineering. The problem is reasonably concrete (autonomous refueling in contested environments implied by 'networked universal systems'), but the awardee is Lockheed Martin, a legacy prime contractor, which alone disqualifies this from signaling AI-native defense procurement innovation.
