Airborne Reconnaissance Systems

Abstract

The Airborne Reconnaissance Systems program coordinates the development of advanced airborne reconnaissance system technologies (sensors, data links, targeting networks and products, and quick reaction capabilities) in support of multiple airborne reconnaissance platforms, both manned and unmanned. Its objective is to develop, demonstrate, and rapidly transition advanced, interoperable, multi-platform solutions to reduce the find, fix, target, and track kill chain timeline. This program also coordinates the development of common collection, processing, and dissemination solutions for near-real time intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR). This program is categorized as Budget Activity 7 because it provides for development of technologies and capabilities in support of operational system development. Funds in any project can also cover activities to include studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution and future program planning.
