U.S. Army 1st Lt. Dawson Yates, a fire support officer assigned to the 2nd Infantry Battalion, 7th Infantry Regiment, 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, explains how Soldiers are utilizing the machine-learning Shrike software with unmanned aerial systems during Combined Resolve 25-02 at the Joint Multinational Readiness Center in Hohenfels Training Area, Hohenfels, Germany, May 9, 2025. The Shrike software expedites target identification and decreases processing time for indirect fire missions by using a machine learning program and live footage from unmanned aerial systems. Combined Resolve is part of the Army’s “Transforming in Contact” initiative, which assesses the effectiveness of electronic warfare and counter-unmanned aerial systems, as well as how changes in force structure and current tactics align with emerging technologies.
