 Aug 13, 2026 10:05 AM ET

 RESTON, Va. /3BL/ - As global air traffic and complexity increase, [**Leidos**](https://www.leidos.com/) (NYSE: LDOS) and the Agency for Science, Technology and Research’s Institute for Infocomm Research (A\*STAR I²R) will collaborate on new air traffic management (ATM) technologies designed to help the aviation industry accommodate future growth.

The partners are establishing a joint laboratory in Singapore, managed by A\*STAR I²R, that will focus on developing advanced ATM and related aviation solutions with an emphasis on automation, digital operations, as well as integrating newly developed capabilities into existing and emerging aviation systems.

"This partnership reflects Leidos' continued commitment to the Indo-Pacific region while accelerating capabilities that can support a more efficient, resilient and sustainable future for air travel,” said Jim Preaskorn, Leidos vice president of ATM. “As aviation systems become more connected and complex, the industry needs new tools that help controllers make faster, more informed decisions."

The approach combines Leidos' expertise in ATM, artificial intelligence (AI) and cybersecurity with A\*STAR I²R's capabilities in data analytics, advanced communications and applied research.

“At A\*STAR I²R, we bring deep expertise in developing advanced technologies and translating research into real-world applications, making us a strong partner for innovation,” said Dr. Sun Sumei, executive director at A\*STAR I²R. “Through this collaboration, we look forward to co-innovating on next-generation ATM solutions by leveraging our capabilities in AI, communications and data for the aviation sector in the Indo-Pacific.”

With global passenger traffic projected to approach 10 billion passengers annually, the partnership supports Leidos’ investments in aviation modernization and strengthens the company's continued growth across one of the world's fastest-growing aviation markets.
