RITA Partnerships
RITA collaborates with federal research organizations and mission stakeholders to advance AI-enabled tactical autonomy from sensing to execution.
Our partnerships are rooted in mission alignment, operational relevance, and long-term strategic impact.
Alignment with the Warfighter
We use tactical doctrine to inform but not constrain the research.
Alignment with the Mission
RITA creates ongoing engagement between researchers and operators, giving principal investigators a clearer understanding of real-world operational decision-making.
Alignment with Identified Needs
The UARC leverages strategic documentation to understand the long-term demand signals from the national level down to the campaign level.
