Two weeks of testing. Nine test flights. One 2025 Boeing #ecoDemonstrator Explorer. Flying a United 737-8, teams assessed internet-based tech to strengthen security and operational efficiency. The technology — called Internet Protocol Suite — can also improve the communications and information exchange between the flight deck, air traffic control and the airline's operation center. Others involved in this testing include Collins Aerospace, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, ESA - European Spa

We successfully achieved our first autonomous teamed flights using high-performance jets as test beds and Australian-developed missions systems technology! Flying at speeds of up to 300km/h, our team tested the jets’ abilities to safely communicate and coordinate with each other. Next, we’ll try more complex maneuvers, increasing teaming formation numbers and more complex missions. #AirpowerTeaming | The Boeing Company
