New Development Effort Will Enable Airborne Early Warning Capability for MQ-9B SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / May 21, 2026 / General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) flew its MQ-9B Remotely Piloted Aircraft for the first time with Airborne Early Warning (AEW) pods. The much-anticipated AEW capability is being provided through a partnership with Saab.

GA-ASI conducted a validation flight of MQ-9B using AEW radar pods on May 19 from GA-ASI's Desert Horizon flight operations facility in Southern California using a company-owned aircraft.

Today, a retail trader with $100 and a smartphone can access the same class of automated execution that once required a team of quants and millions in infrastructure. That's not an exaggeration. It's the shift that's quietly reshaping stock and forex markets, and AI trading agents are at the center of it. The Old Way Is Breaking Down Manual trading made sense when markets moved slowly enough for humans to keep up. That world no longer exists. Forex markets process over $7 trillion in daily volume. Crypto trades around the clock across hundreds of exchanges. Stock prices react to news in milliseconds.

The traders who thrived in this environment were either exceptionally disciplined o
