Today, we are unveiling Area 9 – Helsing's advanced research division.  Headed by our Chief Scientist, Antoine Bordes, Area 9 pushes the boundaries of what is possible and turns advanced research into real capabilities. Area 9's history started with the development of Centaur, the super-human AI fighter pilot, which has since graduated to become part of Helsing's core technology. Based on an RL-trained neural network, Centaur has been deployed in air combat scenarios on the Saab Gripen above the Baltic Sea. It is also powering Helsing's upcoming autonomous fighter jet CA-1 Europa.  "Area 9's mandate is to identify and pursue research opportunities that create outsized capability gains", said Antoine Bordes. "Our goal is always to deploy, and combine frontier research with in-the-field iteration." Stay tuned for what's coming next later this week. Technological superiority is not optional. It is what keeps democracies safe.
