Counter - Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Advanced Development

Abstract

The Secretary of Defense (SecDef) designated the Secretary of the Army (SA) as the Department of Defense's (DoD) Executive Agent (EA) for Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-sUAS). The EA is tasked with leading, directing, and synchronizing DoD efforts to counter small Unmanned Aircraft System (sUAS) threats while minimizing unnecessary duplication and redundancy. The C-sUAS efforts are in response to the DoD Joint Requirements Oversight Council Memorandum (JROC-M) requirement for identification, development, testing, evaluation, and integration of technologies to defeat sUAS threats across the DoD. The C-sUAS efforts provide warfighters the ability to comprehensively detect, track, identify, and defeat enemy Group 1, 2 and 3 UAS platforms. The efforts will be joint development efforts to provide integrated solutions to meet the needs of the Military Services and DoD Agencies against emerging threats.
