MQ-1 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)
Abstract
This program element is part of the Military Intelligence Program. This program element identifies, develops, integrates, and tests Special Operations Forces (SOF) - unique mission kits, mission payloads, weaponization, and modifications on MQ-1 Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), ground control stations, and training systems as a component of the Medium Altitude Long Endurance Tactical Program. USSOCOM is designated as the DoD lead for planning, synchronizing, and as directed, executing Overseas Contingency Operations against terrorist networks. USSOCOM requires the capability to find, fix, finish, exploit, and analyze time-sensitive high-value targets. These targets can often only be identified with patient collection of information and require rapid, decisive action during the short periods in which they present themselves. This program element addresses the primary areas of Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, Target (ISR&T) Acquisition, and strike.
