According to a US Army release of 22 October, four autonomous ground vehicles from DARPA's RACER programme ran a continuous demonstration on 15 October at Fort Knox's St. Vith Range, from satellite imagery through coordinated manoeuvre to a simulated rocket strike, with the decision to fire kept under human control. The demonstration was requested by US European Command and attended by about two dozen senior officials; DARPA plans a further test in December 2026 incorporating soldier feedback.
