Helsing Centaur

Centaur is Helsing's AI fighter pilot. It can function as an autonomous combat agent on board fighter jets, operate independently or as part of a swarm, and integrate with allied airframes. In 2025 Helsing and Saab ran Project Beyond — the first publicly known combat trial of AI piloting a fully operational fighter jet, with Centaur flying a Gripen E in a beyond-visual-range engagement against a human-operated Gripen D. Centaur also flies on Helsing's own CA-1 Europa platform.
