Who is Red 6 and Why?
In response to a national security crisis in military flight training that represents an annual $24B Total Addressable Market, Red 6 developed ATARS (Airborne Tactical Augmented Reality System). ATARS represents a technological breakthrough that for the first time offers a wide field-of-view, full color demonstrable augmented reality solution that works in dynamic outdoor environments.
Red 6's Technology is the First and Only to put virtual airplanes into the real world. Real pilots in real airplanes, flying against synthetic enemies, brought into a digital AR world, up in the sky. This negates the need for the military to provide physical airplanes and pilots as adversary forces to train against. The initial focus of ATARS was to provide all allied combat pilots across the globe with single- aircraft, within visual range air combat maneuvering training against synthetic threats.
Why?
By providing a dedicated synthetic adversary training resource to every squadron, ATARS enables unlimited 1v1 training against the actual enemy capability they will see in battle. Synthetic aircraft doing exactly what a state-of-the-art enemy aircraft would be able to do.
This bears repeating: ATARS will enable US military pilots to fight against our adversaries’ most advanced fighter jets in synthetic form so that when the day comes, we will be able to exceed the capabilities of anyone we face.
Like chess masters being able to train with chess software programs, ATARS also enables pilots to be trained at all stages of their careers, from initial flight training through advanced leadership of large groups of air combat forces. This results in the US military needing to use fewer instructor pilots, fewer aircraft, and with resulting lessened maintenance needs and operational expenses. We can now rapidly increase the production output of new combat aviators while simultaneously achieving compelling financial offsets across the Combat Air Force.
