Leonardo DRS today revealed SAGEcore™, a ruggedized AI software platform built for real-time threat detection and decision support at the tactical edge. The company aims to empower warfighters with immediate situational awareness.

SAGEcore combines AI, sensor fusion, and edge computing into a usable solution. It operates on tough edge computers, handles complex data on-site, and maintains low latency in challenging environments.

John Baylouny, COO at Leonardo DRS, said, “We engineered how technologies work together at the tactical edge. Our platform senses and interprets complex battlespace data in real time.”

The platform supports tactical vehicles, airborne systems, maritime vessels, and space assets. It handles multiple sensor inputs – radar, infrared, intelligence broadcasts and delivers AI insights where needed.

Core features of SAGEcore

  • Real-time AI/ML execution for threat detection, target tracking, and C2 functions
  • Multi-sensor data fusion via open standards such as SOSA
  • Built-in high-assurance encryption and cross-domain capability
  • PACE (Primary, Alternate, Contingency, Emergency) communications for reliability
  • Interoperability with external command-and-control systems

Paired with Leonardo DRS’s AI processor, SAGEcore reduces latency, manages multiple targets, and accelerates decision cycles even when offline from networks.

The system fits roles in Counter-UAS, electronic warfare, and autonomous missions. Leonardo DRS envisions streamlined integration with defense agencies and industry partners to meet evolving tactical demands.

Leonardo DRS has gained experience in both traditional and non-traditional procurement methods, including OTAs. This allows for quicker deployment of new technologies designed to meet mission needs.
