SAN DIEGO, Feb 13, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) passed a new milestone this month, successfully integrating 3rd-party mission autonomy into the YFQ-42A Collaborative Combat Aircraft to conduct its first semi-autonomous airborne mission.For this test, GA-ASI used mission autonomy software supplied by Collins Aerospace, an RTX business, to fly the new YFQ-42A CCA, designed and developed by GA-ASI for the U.S. Air Force. The Sidekick Collaborative Mission Autonomy software was seamlessly integrated with the YFQ-42A's flight control system, utilizing the Autonomy Government Reference Architecture (A-GRA). The integration enabled robust and reliable data exchange between the autonomy software and the aircraft's mission systems, ensuring precise execution of mission autonomy commands.During the recent testing, autonomy mode was activated via the Ground Station Console (GSC). Once enabled, a human autonomy operator on the ground transmitted various commands directly to the YFQ-42A, which executed the instructions with high accuracy for more than four hours. This test highlights the effectiveness of Sidekick's advanced mission autonomy capabilities and the flexibility of the A-GRA standard in supporting complex operational requirements."We are excited to collaborate with Collins to deliver enhanced autonomous mission solutions," said David R. Alexander, president of GA-ASI. "The integration of Sidekick with our YFQ-42A demonstrates our commitment to innovation and operational excellence in unmanned aircraft technology."This achievement underscores GA-ASI's dedication to advancing autonomous systems for defense applications. The combination of Sidekick autonomy software and YFQ-42A mission systems, connected through A-GRA, sets new benchmarks for combat autonomy, mission flexibility, operator control, and system reliability."The autonomy capabilities showcased in this flight highlight our dedicated investment to advance collaborative mission autonomy," said Ryan Bunge, vice president and general manager for Strategic Defense Solutions, Collins Aerospace, an RTX business. "The rapid integration of Sidekick onto this General Atomics platform and its immediate ability to support a broad spectrum of combat-relevant behaviors underscores the strength and flexibility of our open systems approach."This first mission autonomy flight continues a robust YFQ-42A development schedule for GA-ASI that began in August 2025 with initial flights of YFQ-42A Tail One. In less than six months, GA-ASI has built and flown multiple YFQ-42A aircraft, including push-button autonomous takeoffs and landings.GA-ASI has been building and flying uncrewed jets for nearly two decades, beginning with the company-funded, weaponized MQ-20 Avenger® in 2008. Ongoing company investment in Avenger continues to yield results, as the aircraft routinely serves as a CCA surrogate for advanced autonomy development and testing in both government programs and company-funded research and development.As a family-owned, privately held defense company for more than 30 years, GA-ASI is known as one of the original disruptors in the U.S defense industry, pioneering and inventing many of the technologies now considered ubiquitous in uncrewed aircraft operations around the world. The company re-invests more than 35 percent of annual revenue into internal research and design projects, building ahead of need and designing capabilities ahead of requirements.In 2025, for example, an internally funded Avenger demo featured both GA-ASI's TacACE autonomy software and Shield AI's Hivemind software on the same flight, with the MQ-20 seamlessly switching between AI pilots while still airborne. Later in the year, GA-ASI teamed with Lockheed Martin and L3 Harris for another Avenger flight demo, connecting the MQ-20 with an F-22 Raptor for an advanced manned-unmanned teaming mission that allowed the human fighter pilot to command the Avenger as an autonomous CCA surrogate via tablet control from the cockpit.In 2024, GA-ASI first flew its XQ-67A Off-Board Sensing Station (OBSS) jet, developed in collaboration with Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). This early CCA prototype validated the "genus/species" concept pioneered with AFRL as part of the Low-Cost Attritable Aircraft Platform Sharing (LCAAPS) program, focused on building several aircraft variants from a common core chassis.GA-ASI's Gambit Series envisions multiple missionized variants from this common core concept, with XQ-67A already showcasing airborne sensing and YFQ-42A illustrating air-to-air combat. Using this novel manufacturing approach to drive overall customer value, GA-ASI can quickly pivot to diverse missions with less time and cost investment than building a clean-sheet aircraft.About GA-ASIGeneral Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc., is the world's foremost builder of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). Logging more than 9 million flight hours, the Predator® line of UAS has flown for over 30 years and includes MQ-9A Reaper®, MQ-1C Gray Eagle®, MQ-20 Avenger®, and MQ-9B SkyGuardian®/SeaGuardian®.

美國加利福尼亞州聖地亞哥, 2026年2月13日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc.（GA-ASI）本月達成一項新的里程碑，成功將第三方任務自主系統整合至 YFQ-42A 協同作戰飛機（Collaborative Combat Aircraft, CCA），並完成其首次半自主空中任務。在此次測試中，GA-ASI 採用了由 RTX 旗下企業 Collins Aerospace 提供的任務自主軟體，對這款為美國空軍設計和開發的全新 YFQ-42A CCA 進行飛行測試。Sidekick 協同任務自主軟體基於 Autonomy Government Reference Architecture（A-GRA，自主系統政府參考架構）標準，與 YFQ-42A 的飛行控制系統實現了無縫整合。該整合實現了自主軟體與飛機任務系統之間穩健且可靠的資料交換，確保任務自主指令能夠被精準執行。在近期測試過程中，通過地面控制台（Ground Station Console, GSC）啟動了自主模式。啟用後，地面的人類自主操作員向 YFQ-42A 直接發送多項指令，飛機在超過四小時的飛行過程中以高精度執行了相關指令。本次測試凸顯了 Sidekick 先進任務自主能力的有效性，以及 A-GRA 標準在支援複雜作戰需求方面的靈活性。“我們很高興與 Collins 展開合作，共同提供增強型自主任務解決方案，”GA-ASI 總裁 David R. Alexander 表示。“Sidekick 與我們的 YFQ-42A 的整合，體現了我們在無人機技術領域持續創新與追求卓越營運能力的承諾。”這一成就彰顯了 GA-ASI 在推進自主系統用於國防應用方面的堅定投入。通過 A-GRA 實現互聯的 Sidekick 自主軟體與 YFQ-42A 任務系統的結合，為作戰自主能力、任務靈活性、操作員控制能力以及系統可靠性樹立了新的標竿。“此次飛行所展示的自主能力，體現了我們在推進協同任務自主方面的持續投入，”RTX 旗下 Collins Aerospace 戰略防務解決方案副總裁兼總經理 Ryan Bunge 表示。“Sidekick 能夠快速整合至這一 General Atomics 平台，並立即支援廣泛的作戰相關行為，充分彰顯了我們開放系統架構方法的優勢與靈活性。”此次首次任務自主飛行，延續了 GA-ASI 強勁的 YFQ-42A 研發進度。該項目始於 2025 年 8 月，當時完成了首架 YFQ-42A（Tail One）的首次飛行。在不到六個月的時間內，GA-ASI 已建造並試飛多架 YFQ-42A 飛機，其中包括通過按鈕控制實現的自主起飛與自主著陸。GA-ASI 研發與試飛無人噴氣式飛機已有近二十年歷史，始於 2008 年公司自籌資金開發的武裝型 MQ-20 Avenger®。公司持續對 Avenger 項目進行投入並不斷取得成果，該機型經常在政府項目及公司自籌研發項目中充當 CCA 替代平台，用於先進自主技術的開發與測試。作為一家由家族擁有、私營控股的國防企業，GA-ASI 在過去 30 多年中一直被視為美國國防工業最早的“顛覆者”之一，率先研發並創造了多項如今已成為全球無人機運行領域普遍應用的關鍵技術。公司每年將超過 35% 的營收再投入內部研發與設計項目，提前佈局需求，超前設計能力。例如，在 2025 年的一次公司內部資助的 Avenger 演示飛行中，同一架飛機同時搭載了 GA-ASI 的 TacACE 自主軟體與 Shield AI 的 Hivemind 軟體，MQ-20 在空中飛行過程中實現了不同 AI“飛行員”之間的無縫切換。隨後在當年晚些時候，GA-ASI 與 Lockheed Martin 及 L3 Harris 合作開展了另一場 Avenger 飛行演示，將 MQ-20 與 F-22 Raptor 戰鬥機連接，執行先進的有人—無人協同任務。該任務允許人類戰鬥機飛行員通過座艙內的平板設備，對 Avenger 作為自主 CCA 替代平台進行指揮控制。2024 年，GA-ASI 首次試飛其 XQ-67A 機外感知站（Off-Board Sensing Station, OBSS）噴氣式飛機。該機型由 GA-ASI 與美國空軍研究實驗室（Air Force Research Laboratory, AFRL）合作開發。這一早期 CCA 原型機驗證了與 AFRL 共同提出的“屬/種（genus/species）”概念，該概念源自“低成本可損耗飛機平台共享計劃”（Low-Cost Attritable Aircraft Platform Sharing, LCAAPS），旨在基於統一核心底盤構建多種飛機變型。GA-ASI 的 Gambit 系列構想基於這一通用核心平台開發多種任務化變型，其中 XQ-67A 已展示空中感知能力，而 YFQ-42A 則展示了空對空作戰能力。通過這種創新的製造方法提升整體客戶價值，GA-ASI 能夠以比從零開始設計新型飛機更少的時間與成本投入，快速轉向不同任務需求。關於 GA-ASI通用原子航空系統公司（General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc.，GA-ASI）是全球領先的無人航空系統（UAS）製造商。GA-ASI 的 Predator® 系列無人機已累計超過 900 萬飛行小時，並在過去 30 年內持續服役，旗下機型包括 MQ-9A Reaper®、MQ-1C Gray Eagle®、MQ-20 Avenger® 以及 MQ-9B SkyGuardian®/SeaGuardian®。公司致力於提供長航時、多任務解決方案，以實現持續的態勢感知與快速打擊能力。欲了解更多資訊，請訪問 www.ga-asi.com 。Avenger、EagleEye、Grey Eagle、Lynx、Predator、Reaper、SeaGuardian 和 SkyGuardian 是 General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. 在美國和/或其他國家註冊的商標。聯絡方式GA-ASI 媒體關係ASI-MediaRelations@ga-asi.com(858) 524-8101來源: General Atomics Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - February 12, 2026) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQX: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to present an overview of ongoing geological modelling at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Québec. This news release focusses on significant new vein-hosted mineralization beneath the historic O'Brien gold mine emerging from the Company's continuing and fully funded 140,000 metre step-out drill program. Since late 2024, fifteen drill wedges have been completed from pilot hole OB-24-337, delineating a coherent system of at least eight parallel veins demonstrating continuity of mineralization with the former mine workings. These veins have now been delineated over a 250 metre x 700 metre area, with implications for future mineral resource growth and mine planning.Matt Manson, President and CEO: "In today's news release, we are drawing attention to the geological model that is developing in concert with the drill results we have been publishing over the past 12 months. As of the date of our most recent news release on January 27, 2026, we have been seeing success across the breadth of the Project, with an impressive 84% success rate in intercepting gold mineralization in classic O'Brien quartz-sulphide-gold veins with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's mineral resources. In this news release, we are drawing attention to the multi-vein system being delineated below the former mine, and the continuity of high-grade intercepts that support our geological understanding. Our 140,000-metre step-out drill program is scheduled to continue with eight active drill rigs through 2026 and into the first half of 2027. As this drill program progresses, the volume of drill-delineated gold mineralization at the Project is growing. To illustrate this growth, we intend to issue a series of step-by-step updates to our Mineral Resource Estimate, with the first expected prior to the end of the first quarter of 2026. These updates will present the Project as it should be viewed for future development: not as a bespoke deposit of extreme grade and limited scale, but as an extensive Abitibi vein deposit with a substantial inventory of mineralized material amenable to modern mechanized mining. Today's release is designed to illustrate the confidence we are developing in the geological model that supports this vision."Gold Mineralization at O'BrienGold mineralization at O'Brien occurs within quartz-sulphide veins developed primarily within the interlayered mafic volcanic rocks, conglomerates, and porphyritic andesitic sills of the Piché Group occurring in contact with the regionally significant Larder Lake-Cadillac Break ("LLCB"). Individual veins are generally narrow, ranging from several centimetres up to several metres in thickness, and are associated with mineralized alteration envelopes of up to several metres in thickness. Multiple veins occur sub-parallel to each other, as well as sub-parallel to the Piché lithologies and the LLCB.As mapped at the historic O'Brien mine, and now replicated in the modern drilling, individual veins have well-established lateral continuity, with steeply plunging grade shoots developed over significant lengths. The historic O'Brien mine produced over half a million ounces of gold from such veins and shoots at an average grade exceeding 15 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") and over a vertical extent of at least 1,000 metres.140,000-Metre Step-Out Drill ProgramSince the end of 2024, Radisson has been pursuing a program of broad step-out drilling at O'Brien with the objective of determining the overall scope of mineralization at the Project to a depth of 2 kilometres. The priority is the quantity and distribution of mineral resources with step-outs rather than in-filling to upgrade the classification of the existing mineral resources.This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. In October, 2025 Radisson announced the expansion of the program to 140,000 metres employing an eventual eight drill rigs (see Radisson news release dated October 16, 2025). An initial 35,000 metres of the program were completed in 2025, with 72,500 metres budgeted for 2026, and a further 32,500 metres scheduled for the first half of 2027.The scope of the drill program is broad, with up to eight rigs to be deployed to drill beneath the breadth of the former mine ("O'Brien Mine East" and "West"), beneath the modern mineral resources to the east ("Trend #s 1 to 4"), and at the Thompson-Cadillac area west of the O'Brien mine, which will be drilled for the first time since 2021. Objectives will be reassessed progressively based on results obtained. Since the program began, 84% of completed drill holes have intersected gold mineralization with grades and core-lengths consistent with the Project's Mineral Resources (see Radisson news release dated January 27, 2026; Figure 1).Figure 1: Deep Step-Out Drill Holes Completed and Reported by the Company between December 2024 and January 27, 2026To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/283653_eebb572a04b9c9f2_001full.jpgA particular focus of this step-out drill program has been to explore below the principal area of historic workings ("O'Brien Mine East") where mining operations ceased in 1957 at the 1,000 metre level. In December 2024, Radisson released the results of deep pilot hole OB-24-337 which intersected 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres, including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth, 500 metres below the final mining stope (see Radisson news release dated December 16, 2024).Since this time results from a total of fifteen drill wedges from this pilot hole have been reported in addition to the new pilot hole OB-25-378, which has been successfully completed to a vertical depth of 1,640 metres. All of these drill holes have intersected gold mineralization with grades and core-lengths consistent with the Project's Mineral Resources over a broad area (Figure 2).Figure 2: Oblique View of Drill Hole OB-24-337, its Fifteen Wedges, and Drill Hole OB-25-378 and Vein Modelling Beneath Mining Stopes of the Former O'Brien Gold MineTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/283653_eebb572a04b9c9f2_002full.jpgVein Modelling at O'BrienRadisson maintains a dynamic model of O'Brien veining comprising wireframed domains that are updated as drilling progresses. The model is used as an exploration tool to guide future drilling and to constrain the Project's mineral resource estimate. Wireframe domains use an approximate cut-off grade of 1.0 g/t Au and a nominal true minimum width of 1.2 metres. Domain extensions are defined at a limit of 50% of the local drill hole spacing or distance to an excluded drill hole, or 25 metres, whichever is smaller. Veins are typically concordant with the host Piche formation rocks, although can be observed crossing lithological boundaries, and dip at approximately 80 degrees to the south, consistent with vein orientations and relationships mapped from historic underground workings.Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focussed on a main central high-grade stope. Parallel veins were identified during historic mining through horizontal drilling and exploration drifts but left undeveloped. It is estimated that the effective grade cut-off used in the former mine was between 7 and 8 g/t Au., leaving significant quantities of mineralized material unmined.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/283653_eebb572a04b9c9f2_003full.jpgTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/283653_eebb572a04b9c9f2_004full.jpg Figure 3: Long-Sections with Drill Support for Eight Individual Veins Beneath Mining Stopes of the Former O'Brien Gold MineTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/283653_eebb572a04b9c9f2_005full.jpgThe two pilot holes and fifteen wedges now completed below the former mine, in addition to the historical mining and exploration data, support a model comprising at least eight separate wireframed veins covering an area approximately 250 metres (east-west) by 700 metres (vertical). In this dynamic model, extrapolation distances are set at 50 metres along strike and 100 metres down-plunge, assumptions supported by the observable continuity of high-grade shoots in the historic data. The model is open in all directions.Individual veins are presented in Figure 3 in long-section, showing the drill control and the classification of drill intercepts that define them. In the historic mine, the principal mining stope showed consistently higher grades compared to the unmined parallel structures. This is consistent with the new model, where vein V3-CEN (Figure 3, Panel B) has continuity with the historic mining stope and returns consistently high-grade intercepts. This implies a remarkably consistent, high-grade shoot of at least 1,600 metres vertical continuity. Highlights from the modern drilling on this central vein include:OB-24-337 with 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metreOB-25-337W7 with 16.43 g/t Au over 8.1 metres including 60.75 g/t Au over 2.1 metresOB-25-337W3 with 29.93 g/t Au over 2.2 metres including 53.50 g/t Au over 1.2 metresOB-25-337W5 with 47.70 g/t Au over 1.0 metresTable 1 (Appendix) presents the specific drill intercepts grouped by vein employed in the modelling. For original reporting of each drill hole cited in Table 1 at cut-offs of 1.0 g/t Au and 3.0 g/t Au please see the following news releases dated: December 16, 2024, April 2, 2025, July 16, 2025, October 28, 2025, January 6, 2026, January 27, 2026.A VRIFY scene of the new vein modelling is available at: https://vrify.com/decks/21430Next StepsDrilling is ongoing at the Project, with seven rigs currently active and an eighth rig to be mobilized shortly. Beneath the former mine, the second wedge to be drilled from deep pilot hole OB-25-378 is in progress. Radisson expects to report drill results from the program on a regular basis as the 72,500 metres of drilling budgeted for 2026 progresses. Radisson further intends to update the Project's Mineral Resource Estimate on a step-by-step basis through the course of the drill program. The first such update is expected to be completed prior to the end of the first quarter of 2026.QA/QCAll drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. The samples were analyzed using standard fire assay procedures with Atomic Absorption (AA) finish at ALS Laboratory Ltd, in Val-d'Or, Québec. Samples yielding a grade higher than 10 g/t Au were analyzed a second time by fire assay with gravimetric finish at the same laboratory. Mineralized zones containing visible gold were analyzed with metallic sieve procedure. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted prior to shipment for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC).Starting in December 2025, Radisson's drill core samples have been sent to MSALABS's analytical laboratory located in Val-d'Or, Québec, for preparation and gold analysis. The entire sample is dried and crushed (70% passing a 2-millimeter sieve) and split to 500 g. The analysis for gold is performed on an approximately 500 g aliquot using Chrysos Photon Assay™ technology. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted for quality assurance and quality control.MSALABS and ALS Chemex operate under ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, utilizing industry-standard QA/QC frameworks for gold analysis. By integrating blanks, duplicates, and CRMs into their workflows, both labs adhere to established benchmarks that ensure precise, reliable, and verifiable results.QP DisclosureDisclosure of a scientific or technical nature in this news release was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Richard Nieminen, P.Geo, (QC), a geological consultant for Radisson and a Qualified Person for purposes of NI 43-101.

BOSTON, Feb 11, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Bioxytran, Inc. (OTCQB: BIXT) today announced positive clinical results from its recently completed Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-optimization trial evaluating ProLectin-M in subjects with laboratory-confirmed acute viral infection. The Bioxyytran Trial reports complete elimination of viral load in 100% of patients at day 7 versus placebo (p=.001).The completed Phase 2 clinical study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-optimization trial evaluating orally administered ProLectin-M in subjects with acute viral infection. The study enrolled 38 subjects, all of whom completed the study. Subjects were randomized to receive one of three ProLectin-M dose levels or a matching placebo, administered over a seven-day treatment period.Viral shedding was assessed using RT-PCR analysis of nasopharyngeal swabs collected at predefined timepoints, with viral clearance defined as non-detection of viral RNA below established PCR thresholds.The study design, endpoints, and duration confirmed Bioxytran’s earlier randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2 trial, which demonstrated statistically significant reductions in viral load by Day 7, early clearance as soon as Day 3, and no observed viral rebounds during a 14-day post-treatment observation period. The current trial further refined dose selection of four tablets per day and evaluated the reproducibility of rapid viral clearance using the same core virologic assessment methodology.Topline Viral Clearance ResultsFollowing database lock and unblinding, treatment-wise analyses demonstrated the following outcomes:Complete elimination of viral load in 100% of treated subjects by Day 7, compared to the placebo group (p = .001)No viral rebounds observed in the treated population during the 14-day post-treatment observation periodThese results indicate rapid and sustained viral clearance in subjects treated with ProLectin-M.Viral Clearance Timing (All Subjects)Across the full study population:Day 3: 1 of 38 subjects demonstrated non-detection of viral sheddingDay 5: 16 of 38 subjects demonstrated non-detection of viral sheddingDay 7: 38 of 38 subjects demonstrated non-detection of viral sheddingThe study was designed to evaluate viral clearance kinetics and inform dose selection for future late-stage clinical development.“The study design of seven days reflects real-world applications for treating acute viral diseases, with the objective of demonstrating a statistically meaningful reduction in viral load by Day 7,” said Dr. Leslie Ajayi, Chief Medical Officer of Bioxytran. “The results demonstrate that viral clearance occurred more rapidly than anticipated, with a significant proportion of treated subjects achieving viral non-detection by Day 3 and complete clearance by Day 7.”“What continues to distinguish ProLectin-M as a broad-range antiviral drug is its novel mechanism of action,” Dr. Platt continued. “Rather than targeting viral replication inside the cell, our galectin antagonist is designed to interfere with viral entry at the cell surface. This extracellular approach may reduce reliance on immune activation and represents a fundamentally different strategy in antiviral therapy. We believe these results further support the potential of carbohydrate-based therapeutics and the emerging field of Glycovirology.”Next StepsBased on these results, Bioxytran plans to advance regulatory discussions to support late-stage clinical development and evaluate ProLectin-M across additional viral indications consistent with its broad-spectrum antiviral profile.About Bioxytran, Inc.Bioxytran, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel carbohydrate-based therapeutics targeting significant unmet medical needs in virology and other disease areas. The Company’s lead program, ProLectin-M, is being developed as a potential broad-spectrum antiviral therapeutic.For more information, please visit www.bioxytraninc.com.Investor & Media Contact:Bryan Feinberg / AmplifiXZephyr@amplifiX.net Company Contact:david.platt@bioxytraninc.com(617) 510-2539Forward-Looking StatementsThis press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable federal securities laws, including statements regarding the performance of the technology described herein, the interpretation of clinical trial results, regulatory plans, and future development activities.

香港, 2026年2月11日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 2月10日，愛芯元智（0600.HK）在港上市，成為中國邊緣AI芯片第一股，此次IPO發行價28.2港元，盤中市值超過165億港元。作為愛芯元智首次對外融資的投資人，聯想控股（3396.HK）旗下聯想之星也收穫了半導體芯片領域首個IPO。不久前，小核酸藥物公司瑞博生物（6938.HK）和手術機器人公司精鋒醫療（2675.HK）也成功登陸港股。伴隨愛芯元智上市的鑼聲，聯想之星開年伊始已見證3家被投企業成功登陸資本市場。這家深耕硬科技十餘年的早期投資機構，正迎來屬於自己的集中收穫季。「祝賀愛芯元智成功上市，憑借智慧城市和智能駕駛雙輪驅動，他們已經成長為邊端側AI芯片平台型企業。作為半導體芯片行業為數不多的女性創業者，仇肖莘強大的學習和迭代能力令人印象深刻。」在聯想之星總裁、主管合伙人王明耀看來，通過陪伴這家半導體芯片公司從起步到上市，聯想之星對半導體芯片的投資邏輯和策略也獲得成功驗證。聯想之星投她 收穫首個半導體芯片IPO這是一個投資人與創業者相互成就的故事。時間回到2019年，判斷AI在應用層面將迎來爆發後，在半導體行業深耕二十多年的仇肖莘，選擇以客戶集中度較低但前景同樣開闊的邊緣側和端側AI芯片為切入點，最終創立了愛芯元智。在仇肖莘看來，隨著AI與芯片技術的發展，「雲邊端」三者的結合構成了人工智能的新基建，「通過建設這些基礎設施，能夠讓AI真正地深入到各行各業，然後到普通大眾的日常生活中去。」那個時候，系統佈局人工智能多年的聯想之星，也在長期關注半導體芯片。一個偶然的機會，剛成立不久的愛芯元智進入這家早期投資機構的視野，由此開啟了一段投資人長期陪伴創業公司成長的旅程。早在2019年10月，聯想之星團隊就開始接觸愛芯元智。作為中國半導體行業為數不多的女性創業者，仇肖莘首次與聯想之星執行董事張琪見面時，這位行業資深老兵便給後者留下極其深刻的印象。「她不僅擁有深厚的技術積澱，還管理過數千人的工程師團隊。」一番交流下來，張琪除了近距離感受到仇肖莘平易近人，還發現她對半導體行業有非常深入的認知，「她對AI和半導體產業的深入理解，給了我非常多的啟發。」之所以能夠深入洞察行業，離不開仇肖莘令人驚艷的職業履歷。碩士從清華大學畢業後，她又拿到美國南加州大學電子工程博士學位，並曾先後擔任美國AT&T Bell Labs首席科學家、美國博通公司副總裁以及紫光展銳首席技術官等職務。在仇肖莘的帶領下，愛芯元智很快組建了從芯片設計、驗證、質量控制到供應鏈管理的全功能團隊，核心成員均參與過10顆以上芯片的設計和生產，同時還自研了愛芯智眸AI-ISP和愛芯通元混合精度NPU兩大核心技術。「這家公司從一開始就是軟硬協同設計，擁有獨創性的算法和硬件IP。團隊算法know-how與芯片工程化能力相得益彰，突破了端側AI芯片的設計局限。」據張琪透露，聯想之星很快便開始推進對愛芯元智的盡調事宜，最終於2020年3月在線上通過了投資決策。這也意味著，在拿出2000萬元投資愛芯元智後，聯想之星成為對方首次對外融資的投資人。與此同時，愛芯元智不僅是聯想之星第四期基金的首個項目，同時還成為這家早期投資機構當時單筆投資金額最大的人民幣項目。在獲得聯想之星等投資的4個月後，愛芯元智推出了自研的第一代AI芯片。憑借行業首創的「黑光全彩」技術，這款AI芯片能讓夜晚拍攝的圖片呈現亮如白晝的效果。看到他們出色的表現，聯想之星又於2020年10月追投了這家公司1000萬元。為了成為一家平台型芯片公司，在智慧城市領域進入收穫期後，愛芯元智又於2021年進軍智能駕駛，並計劃在未來將業務拓展到更廣闊的機器人市場。在仇肖莘看來，當產品在不同市場得到驗證後，那麼就能通過相同的底層技術去持續拓展細分市場。這份多線作戰的決心和勇氣，讓聯想之星合伙人高天垚深感佩服，「雖然智能駕駛的市場更加龐大，但同時也需要更大的資金投入，不過愛芯元智在多個業務板塊都實現了很好的發展，最終讓公司體量得以快速增長。」成立不到3年時間，這家公司便成功研發並量產了兩代四顆端側、邊緣側AI芯片。他們取得的亮眼成績，也超過了聯想之星的預期。沒有絲毫猶豫，這家早期投資機構又於2022年1月拿出3000萬元支持愛芯元智。在資源對接、產品路線選擇及戰略制定等方面，聯想之星提供的幫助同樣讓愛芯元智獲益匪淺。據仇肖莘透露，雙方始終保持緊密溝通，當公司面臨一系列決策時，聯想之星都能給予有力支持。從大公司的技術高管成功轉型為創業公司優秀的創始人，王明耀對仇肖莘強大的學習和迭代能力贊不絕口，「從我們長期的觀察來看，如果一個創業項目發展得很好，通常離不開投資人與創始團隊之間的良性互動。」一路走來，愛芯元智已構建行業領先的智能計算平台，並全域賦能終端計算、智能汽車、邊緣計算、機器人等關鍵場景，同時驅動邊緣側、端側人工智能規模化落地與產業升級，芯片累計出貨近2億顆。隨著愛芯元智成功上市，聯想之星不僅收穫了半導體芯片領域和第四期基金的首個IPO，同時還在財務方面獲得豐厚回報，為第四期基金良好的業績表現提供有力支撐。「自上而下」打法 前瞻性系統佈局半導體芯片這筆漂亮的投資回報，源於聯想之星的精准出手與持續重注。對於聯想之星而言，在重投入、長週期、高門檻的半導體芯片行業擁有亮眼的投資命中率，離不開他們的獨特基因與長期積累。早在2008年，聯想之星在聯想控股和中國科學院的支持下成立，旨在發現和培養科技創業人才，孵化科技創業企業，助力科技成果產業化。兩年後，他們又做起早期投資，開始系統佈局人工智能等前沿科技。得益於「早期投資+深度孵化」的獨特模式，聯想之星通過「創業CEO特訓班」，還有中國科學院體系、國內高校和實驗室、產業公司以及海外等渠道，去深入挖掘優質項目，最終成功打造出自己獨有的根據地。「以人工智能為切入點，不斷拓展在前沿技術領域的投資廣度和深度。」在高天垚看來，聯想之星通過在各領域形成優質投資組合作為細分根據地，不斷增加認知紅利和資源積累，最終形成正向循環。沿著這樣的投資策略，聯想之星在十餘年的時間里，持續佈局了AI及AI應用、自動駕駛、半導體芯片、機器人/智能機器、商業航天、泛安全、能源科技等前沿科技方向的細分賽道。在不斷深入投資前沿科技的過程中，聯想之星也在持續加大對人工智能的佈局力度，並長期將端側AI作為重點發力方向。據高天垚介紹，判斷人工智能的發展離不開數據的獲取與算力的突破後，他們從2015年便開始佈局半導體芯片。隨著宏觀環境發生變化，聯想之星發現國產替代與自主可控變得更加重要。再加上下游場景的旺盛需求，意味著中國半導體芯片行業將迎來巨大的發展機遇。「後來決定加大投資力度時，我們還專門召開了一個研討會。」據王明耀透露，在半導體芯片行業，他們最終形成了「自上而下」的打法。結合自身實際情況，聯想之星會通過分析宏觀經濟、產業政策、技術發展等大趨勢，再篩選出半導體芯片行業具有長期增長潛力的方向和環節，最終聚焦於高價值且價格合適的優質標的。「我們在投資半導體芯片時，不是簡單地遵循『國產替代』的邏輯，而是會重點關注項目的創新程度。」高天垚直言，在半導體芯片行業，擁有新材料、新技術、新架構、新應用等新要素，才容易獲得新的機會。在芯片半導體領域，聯想之星通過前瞻性系統佈局，在早期階段，圍繞高性能計算投資了愛芯元智、圖靈量子、億鑄科技、超摩科技、智傲通；圍繞AI基礎設施投資了極刻光核、思澈科技（已被收購）、玏芯科技；圍繞AI感知投資了靈明光子、博升光電、馭光科技（已被收購）、芯感通；圍繞5G基礎設施投資了芯樸科技、比科奇、極芯通訊、頻岢微電子；圍繞第四代半導體材料投資了富加鎵業。如今，靈明光子已成長為高質量dToF傳感芯片和系統解決方案提供商，產品可廣泛覆蓋車載激光雷達及智能座艙傳感系統、智能手機等多種3D傳感器應用終端及場景……至於提供世界級的MCU產品及全套解決方案的思澈科技，不久前已被上市公司收購。此外，他們天使輪投的硅谷項目，也於2025年初被大廠並購。不管是被投的快速成長，亦或是項目的成功退出，關鍵在於聯想之星對「人」和「事」的精准判斷。「事為先，人為重，最重要的是人和事的匹配。」王明耀坦言，還是得看創業者適不適合做這件事，而半導體芯片行業適合精英創業。 「不管創業者具體做什麼事，我們通常還是會收斂到『人』這個維度。」 高天垚補充道。以圖靈量子為例。2021年4月，聯想之星在這家公司天使輪融資時，果斷投資了對方2500萬元。雖然當時不少人認為量子計算離商業化落地很遠，但聯想之星卻更看重對方核心團隊的綜合實力。在他們看來，創始人金賢敏作為上海交大量子實驗室主任，不僅是學術能力強大的科學家，還是富有創業激情和商業能力極強的創業者。此外，圖靈量子還擁有全球唯一同時具備「芯片制備+量子計算+光子計算+人工智能」技術的團隊。目前，圖靈量子已經構建了「芯片+算法」雙輪驅動，打造了「自主可控技術+全鏈條IDM能力」，形成從技術研發到產業落地的完整閉環，同時還聯合上海交大、上海交大無錫光子芯片研究院打造了中國首條光子芯片中試線。對於聯想之星而言，愛芯元智上市的鑼聲如同一聲響亮的發令槍。面對戰略價值不斷提高的半導體芯片行業，聯想之星有望收穫越來越多的半導體芯片IPO。科創投資形成新格局 聯想之星迎來新篇章在投早、投小、投科技成為行業共識前，聯想之星已在這條難而正確的道路上堅持多年。「由於自身獨特的基因，我們會重點投資有意義、有價值、有技術含量的早期項目。」據王明耀透露，目前，聯想之星作為首輪機構投資的項目比例在70%左右。在行業火熱前，聯想之星便已早早佈局。2010年，人工智能概念尚未流行時便開始系統佈局；2014年，以行業先行者的身份尋找自動駕駛項目；2015年，成為最早一批投資商業航天的機構……在可控核聚變爆火前，聯想之星也已提前入局。對科創投資的長期實踐與深入觀察，讓王明耀在2024年敏銳察覺到，新質生產力的提出開啟了科創投資的新時代，「中國經濟結構正從傳統向創新轉型，同時國資以及政府配套政策為科創投資提供了穩定的基礎。」基於這個精准的前瞻性判斷，聯想之星以敏捷的姿態主動出擊，提前加大了對科技屬性顯著的項目的投資力度。以人工智能為主線，他們2025年新投的十幾個項目科技屬性幾乎都拉滿了，覆蓋的也是深度關注的機器人、半導體芯片、低空經濟、腦機結合、新能源等方向。雖然聯想之星佔據先發優勢，同時也積累了深厚的資源，但眾多投資機構的扎堆湧入，正讓中國科創投資的競爭變得愈發激烈，也給他們帶來了巨大的挑戰。在科創投資新格局下，聯想之星給出的破局之法是——一方面，對市場尚未形成共識的賽道和項目進行提前佈局；另一方面，在已有共識的方向和領域投更新和投更精。「現在很多投資機構都在投早、投小、投科技，所以我們需要更往前一步進行佈局。」在王明耀看來，投更新，是要在行業明確的趨勢和拐點到來之前，提前對具有創新要素的項目進行預判；投更精，是要在估值上漲的前提下，通過對項目進行橫向綜合比較，優中選優。得益於對科創投資的深刻認知，以及在資源、人脈、團隊建設等方面的長期深耕，聯想之星正迎來屬於自己的集中收穫季。成立至今，聯想之星已收穫13個IPO。據王明耀透露，聯想之星被投企業上市總數量很快會達到20家，「我們每一期基金的IRR都在20%以上，前三期基金DPI已回正，一期基金DPI已超過5。」優異的投資回報和規範的運營標準，也讓聯想之星的新一期基金募資進展超預期順利，預計不久後將實現超募關賬。除了LP復投比例超過60%，他們新一期基金還獲得由國家發改委、財政部共同推動設立的國家創業投資引導基金出資，成為對方首批簽約基金。按照聯想之星的規劃，新一期基金會重點關注AI+硬科技領域，包括具身智能、AI大模型、AI應用、AI基礎設施（芯片、算力、光傳輸、光傳感），還有低空經濟、核能科技、量子信息、醫療（智能化醫療器械、創新療法）等。放眼望去，創業投資正在成為發展新質生產力的重要引擎，同時中國創投行業正在形成新的投資範式。在這場長達十年甚至更久的科創投資大潮中，聯想之星正在加速開啟屬於自己的新篇章。來源：聯想控股微空間

SAN DIEGO, Feb 11, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) was competitively selected by the U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) for evaluation in the Marine Air-Ground Task Force Uncrewed Expeditionary Tactical Aircraft (MUX TACAIR) Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) program. The agreement integrates GA-ASI's expertise in autonomy and uncrewed aircraft systems with a government-provided mission package, usingthe YFQ-42A platform as a surrogate to evaluate integration with crewed fighters.The contract initiates integration of a Marine Corps mission kit into the YFQ-42A surrogate platform for assessment within the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF).The USMC contract includes the rapid development of autonomy for the government-supplied mission kit - a cost-effective, sensor-rich, software-defined suite capable of delivering kinetic and non-kinetic effects - positioning the solution for use in expeditionary operations. This work will support evaluations of future MUX TACAIR capabilities."This selection builds upon the GA-ASI autonomous systems in use today and demonstrates our commitment to delivering next generation capabilities for critical USMC missions," said Mike Atwood, Vice President of Advanced Programs for GA-ASI. "Our FQ-42, combined with our proven autonomy architecture and integration expertise, positions us to rapidly deliver an affordable CCA solution that enhances the Marine Air-Ground Task Force's operational effectiveness in contested environments."GA-ASI was selected by the U.S. Air Force in April 2024 to build production-representative flight test articles for the CCA program. The YFQ-42A successfully conducted its maiden flight in August 2025, validating a "genus/species" concept for rapid, modular, and low-cost uncrewed fighter aircraft development. This approach enables a common core aircraft design that can be rapidly adapted for different mission sets and service requirements.The YFQ-42A is a purpose-built CCA platform developed as part of GA-ASI's ongoing investment in next-generation autonomous combat aircraft. The aircraft's modular design enables rapid integration of mission systems. GA-ASI's autonomy architecture, demonstrated through multiple live flight tests, provides the foundation for human-machine teaming in complex combat scenarios.About GA-ASIGeneral Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc., is the world's foremost builder of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS).

LONDON, Feb 11, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Diets high in meat, eggs, and dairy products incur significant environmental costs. But a new study has revealed that, in many cases, switching your dog to a more sustainable diet may have a bigger impact on the planet and farmed animals than changing your own diet.The research, published in the journal Animals by veterinary Professor Andrew Knight, found that the average dog consumes around 13 farmed land animals annually within its diet, compared with nine for the average person--a difference of roughly 40%. This gap exists largely because a greater proportion of a typical dog's dietary energy comes from animal-based ingredients--about 34%--compared to around 19% for people.These figures represent global averages and vary by country. In high-income nations such as the United States, consumption is higher across the board. There, an average person consumes 24 farmed land animals annually, compared with 20 for a dog--a smaller difference of about 20%.Traditional meat-based pet foods therefore have substantial environmental and animal welfare impacts. However, alternatives based on plants, microbial protein, and cultivated meat are becoming more widely available. Fully plant-based, or vegan, pet foods can now be easily purchased from online retailers in many countries. By early 2026, 14 studies and one systematic review had reported good health outcomes for dogs or cats fed such diets. However, pet diets should be produced by responsible manufacturers and fully supplemented to ensure all necessary nutrients are included.The potential benefits are substantial. If all pet dogs switched to nutritionally sound vegan diets, six billion land animals could be spared from slaughter each year. Greenhouse gas savings would be 1.5 times the UK's annual emissions, and the food energy conserved could feed 450 million people--the population of the European Union. These calculations are based on 2018 data, and with dog populations growing faster than human populations, the potential benefits are even greater today.After analysing survey responses from thousands of pet carers, Knight also estimated that at least 150 million dogs and cats could realistically be transitioned to nutritionally sound vegan diets. However, because the analysis assumed only one dog or cat per household, he noted that the true numbers are probably several times higher.The study evaluated sustainable pet diets using the principles of effective altruism, a philosophy that prioritises issues based on scale, neglect, and solvability, in order to maximise benefits. It found sustainable pet diets to be highly neglected, with only about two full-time researchers worldwide outside pet food companies, and less than one percent of the farmed animal advocacy movement's annual budget devoted to it.Knight concluded that plant-based pet diets represent a powerful but overlooked way to reduce farmed animal use, improve food security, and address climate and biodiversity challenges. He urged animal and environmental advocates to look beyond a solely human-focused approach to more sustainable diets. "It's ironic", he said, "that the animal advocacy movement has largely overlooked the diets of its own companion animals."Prof. Andrew Knighta.knight@griffith.edu.auSOURCE: Sustainable Pet Food Foundation Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

英國倫敦, 2026年2月11日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 高肉類、蛋類及乳製品的飲食模式會造成顯著的環境成本。但最新研究揭示，在許多情況下，將愛犬轉為更永續的飲食，對地球與農場動物的影響可能遠大於改變人類自身飲食。獸醫學教授安德魯·奈特發表於《動物》期刊的研究指出，平均每隻狗每年攝取約13隻農場陸生動物，而人類僅為9隻——差距約達40%。此差異主要源於犬隻飲食中動物性成分所佔比例更高（約34%），人類則僅約19%。這些數據為全球平均值，各國情況不盡相同。在美國等高收入國家，整體消耗量更高。當地平均每人每年消耗24隻養殖陸生動物，而狗僅消耗20隻——差距縮小至約20%。傳統肉類寵物食品因此對環境與動物福利造成顯著影響。然而，基於植物、微生物蛋白及培養肉的替代品正日益普及。如今在許多國家，消費者可輕鬆透過線上零售商購得全植物性（純素）寵物食品。截至2026年初，已有14項研究與1篇系統性文獻回顧證實，此類飲食對犬貓健康效益良好。但寵物食品應由負責任的製造商生產，並添加完整營養補充劑以確保涵蓋所有必需營養素。潛在效益極為可觀。若全球寵物犬全面轉用營養均衡的純素食糧，每年可免除六億陸生動物遭宰殺。溫室氣體減排量將達英國年排放量的1.5倍，節省的糧食能量足以餵養4.5億人口——相當於歐盟總人口規模。此計算基於2018年數據，鑑於犬隻數量增長速度超越人類人口，當今潛在效益更為可觀。在分析數千名寵物飼主問卷後，奈特估算至少有1.5億隻貓狗可實際轉為營養均衡的純素飲食。但他指出，由於分析假設每戶僅飼養一隻寵物，實際數量可能高出數倍。該研究運用有效利他主義原則評估永續寵物飲食方案——此哲學體系依據問題的規模、被忽視程度及可解決性進行優先排序，以實現效益最大化。研究發現永續寵物飲食領域嚴重遭忽視：全球僅約兩名非寵物食品企業的全職研究者投入此領域，且農場動物權益運動的年度預算中，分配於此的資金不足百分之一。奈特總結指出，植物性寵物飲食是減少養殖動物使用、提升糧食安全、應對氣候與生物多樣性挑戰的強大卻被忽視途徑。他呼籲動物與環境倡議者突破僅關注人類飲食的框架，探索更永續的飲食模式。「動物權益運動長期忽視伴侶動物的飲食問題，實屬諷刺。」他如此表示。安德魯·奈特教授a.knight@griffith.edu.au 來源：永續寵物食品基金會 Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.
