- December 2022 - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc. worked with Lockheed Martin and Tactical Air Support in collaboration to conduct a flight demonstration of multi-platform infrared sensing. According to General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc, the test flight was carried out using GA-ASI's MQ-20 Avenger aircraft system and two F-5 Advanced Tigers equipped with Lockheed's next-generation tactical infrared and track sensors.
- October 2022 - Tactical Air Support Inc. (Tactical Air) collaborated with Lockheed Martin and completed initial flight testing of TacIRSTTM, a new class of embedded, long-range infrared search-and-track sensors (IRST). This step made Tactical Air's F-5 Advanced Tiger the first fighter aircraft to fly and test TacIRST as part of the company's ongoing joint developmental program. Integrating tactical air infrared search-and-track sensors is critical to the evolution of its F-5AT advanced threat replication system supporting the U.S. Air Force adversary contracts and the U.S. Navy.
