GA Integrates Software for USMC Common Intelligence Picture WTI Course

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc
has actually effectively incorporated the sophisticated Optix softwaredeveloped by General Atomics Integrated Intelligence, Inc
(GA-i3)into the U.S
Marine Corps (USMC) Common Intelligence Picture (CIP) for a multi-service Weapons and Tactics Instructor (WTI) course.This turning point
marks a significant improvement in the USMCs Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) abilities, delivering a merged functional
view important to the training of future aviation leaders
For the USMC, this integration straight supports the implementation and effectiveness of the GA-ASI-supplied MQ-9A Medium-Altitude,
Long-Endurance (MALE) Unmanned Aircraft System within the Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF)
Accomplished through close cooperation with Marine Aviation Weapons and Tactics Squadron One (MAWTS-1) and Marine Operational Test and
Evaluation Squadron One (VMX-1), the combination united engineers from GA-ASI and GA-i3 alongside USMC unmanned air travel operations
professionals
Their combined efforts made it possible for the seamless implementation of the Optix software application during the extensive WTI 2-25
training cycle.USMC MQ-9A operations throughout the exercise occurred at Yuma, Arizona, and the Strategic Expeditionary Landing Field (SELF)
at Twenty-Nine Palms, Californiathe Marine Corps only expeditionary runway in the U.S
The live-fire training environment offered a vital opportunity to assess the MQ-9As role in intricate battle scenarios.By introducing Optix
into this high-demand setting, Marines got to real-time information combination, a shared operational picture, and enhanced collective
decision-makingtools critical for modern battleground success.The integration of Optix software represents an essential action toward the
reliable release of the MQ-9A MUX MALE platform within the MAGTF and joint operations, stated Doug Brouwer, Senior Director for USMC
Programs at GA-ASI
It makes it possible for near real-time situational awareness and enhances the decision-making process throughout the battlespace.Andrew
Majchrowicz, Project Manager for Department of Defense Programs at GA-i3, added: Equipping Marines with advanced ISR tools like Optix
improves the typical intelligence photo and operational readiness in live-fire environments
This is an important milestone in our shared goal of enabling joint-force effectiveness and complete operational combination of the MQ-9A
The successful deployment of Optix within the WTI course highlights General Atomics continued dedication to delivering innovative services
that empower the U.S
military with unequaled intelligence and operational abilities for future multi-domain operations.Photo: Optix with Common Intelligence
