Company mission

To change the way the world engages with digital information.

Our take

Red 6 is transforming military pilot training with augmented reality (AR) technology, enabling pilots to engage in virtual scenarios during real-world flights. The company claims it can drastically reduce training costs while increasing pilot numbers and readiness, likening its AR technology to a blend of Pokemon Go and Fortnite - but with the future of America on the line.

It's an exciting time for the company too, having secured a $70M contract with the US Air Force in 2021 and conducting successful AR flight trials with the UK Royal Air Force. These milestones put Red 6 in a leadership position in defense innovation and showcase its potential to enhance pilot training on a global scale.

And it isn't stopping there, Red 6 plans to expand its technology to the US Air Force's T-38 trainers and grow its team in Florida. With this continued development, the company is well on its way to revolutionizing pilot training in the US and beyond.
