What It’s Like Working on BAE Systems’ AI-Powered Military Tech

In 2025, during the annual Maneuver Warfighter Conference — a recurring U.S. Army event that discusses and develops concepts for the future of warfighting — BAE Systems unveiled new technology that has been sought after since the early 1980s. The synthetic training solution, Embedded Collective Training, uses AI and immersive virtual environments to help military personnel prepare for real-world missions. The technology gives warfighters the ability to train collectively in highly realistic and adaptive scenarios across domains, while simultaneously reducing the cost and risk associated with traditional military training.
