From 2 March until 20 March, Project Dynamis executed Serial 005 of the Dynamis Series which focused on a multi-theater “sandbox” assessment leveraging the Systems of Systems Naval Integration Experiment (SOSNIE) in Charleston, South Carolina and Ivy Sting V in Fort Carson, Colorado. This allowed Project Dynamis to evaluate solution performance, scalability, and extensibility across multiple FMF theater organizations that were executing manned and unmanned operations. Serial 005 also allowed for the demonstration of control of autonomous and unmanned systems. (U.S. Marine Corps Photo)
