Hadean and BAE Systems are set to extend and expand their collaboration on the development of disruptive, next-generation digital technology for military training.

Under a new enterprise licence, BAE Systems will be able to exploit artificial intelligence (AI) and Large Language Model (LLM) integrations of the Hadean Platform for Defence. This will help to deliver scalable, interoperable, and immersive collective training solutions to military personnel across services, domains and allies, whilst also allowing investigation of wider applications.

The companies first signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at IT2EC 2022, agreeing to leverage Hadean’s robust spatial computing platform as a vendor for novel software enabling technology and explore new opportunities to provide bespoke simulation environments and scenarios.

From June 2022, Hadean showcased the ability of their cloud-native solutions to combine and expand various 2D, 3D, and Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) elements of ground-based group training. This involved collecting data and instantly streaming training results in real-time.

By March 2023, Hadean’s platform was integrated with the wider BAE Systems ecosystem of partners to deliver Project OdySSEy - a single synthetic environment for multi-domain training, brought together by a consortium of expert SMEs in data analytics, augmented reality and virtual reality.

“Hadean brings its innovative cloud technology into the synthetic environments that we build to help train, wargame and simulate new capability across every military domain,” said Rob Merryweather, BAE Systems’ Technology Director. “By working with SMEs like Hadean, BAE Systems can help apply start-up technology in complex and highly secure military areas, which brings innovation to our customers more quickly whilst helping smaller companies work in the defence sector.”

Both companies will be exhibiting at DSEI in London from 12-15 September. Attendees can find out more about Hadean’s role and the wider group of SMEs working in this area at BAE Systems’ synthetic training panel on Wednesday, 13 September. It will be on The Hub Stage, BAE Systems Stand (H3-110). Attendees can find out how BAE Systems is applying its expertise in military training with technology from a range of leading companies to develop next generation training for the military forces of tomorrow. The session will give attendees an overview of the companies involved, which specialise in simulation, supercomputing, data analytics and augmented and virtual reality to create a single synthetic environment, enabling air, land, sea, space and cyber forces to plug in and train together.

Hadean will also showcase its spatial computing platform at DSEI, stand H2-130, every day for the duration of the show.
