Unmanned Aircraft System Airspace Integration Initiatives
Abstract
Starting in FY 2010, the Department's sense and avoid (SAA) developmental efforts are enhanced by this defense-wide program element. This program has provided joint funding to accelerate the development of SAA technology and standards to enable UAS to routinely access the national and international airspace systems. This program also supports development of UAS airspace integration policy and standards as well as the modeling, simulation, and operational analysis needed to validate the standards. In FY 2013, ABSAA and GBSAA efforts transitioned to the Services. FY 2019 Accomplishments: Completed Final Operational Capability at Grand Forks and Bealle AFB. Integrated GBSAA at Fargo and March AFB. Completed full testing of UTM Architecture and DoD unmanned Service Supplier System interfaces in coordination with the Department of Homeland Security. Conducted Integration of UTM into DoD Counter UAS Systems. Completed study and formally requested a Remote Identification Rule to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
