Sigma Defense was proud to be part of Sea-Air-Space 2026 and align with this year’s theme: “Defending Freedom, Forging Tomorrow.”  We  had many opportunities to demonstrate how Olympus and the Aries RSI Kit support the U.S. Navy and USMC delivering secure data, applications, and surveillance to the edge, and particularly how we support the Marine Corps’ TCS-GS program. We also previewed AI-enabled voice capabilities with Brightline Interactive and highlighted our support to CANES modernization for the Navy’s afloat network environment.
