Counter Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS)

Abstract

The Counter Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS) program employs integrated C-UAS solution sets designed to protect high value or critical Naval assets from surveillance, espionage, or hostile threats posed from the inadvertent or unlawful misuse of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The C-UAS program provides an integrated Family of Systems (FoS) employing advanced target discrimination and defeat capabilities to meet fleet requirements. More details available at a higher classification level. FY 2022 funding is requested to continue management and implementation of system assessment. Provide program management and systems engineering support for the technology development and acquisition strategy for fielding material solution. Funding provides for refinement of material solutions, threat assessments, identification and development of advanced target discrimination, defeat capabilities, and prototype development for integration into the C-UAS FoS. Continues refinement of open architecture solution and interoperability standards for a C-UAS FoS. In partnership with the Joint C-UAS Office (JCO), will identify or develop additional detect and deter capabilities to integrate into the C-UAS FoS. As the JCO designated CORIAN Acquisition Lead, and Program Executive Officer for Unmanned Aviation and Strike Weapons (PEO(U&W)) C-UAS Acquisition program office, continued development, implementation and integration of additional sensor modalities to improve system detect/ID/track/defeat capabilities. Continues efforts to improve interoperability between ashore and afloat C-UAS systems.

• Source ID: 0604636N_4_1319_PB_2022
• Change Summary Explanation: FY22 was adjusted since the previous President's Budget submission by $0.081 million due to miscellaneous rate adjustments. The FY21 Congressional adjustment was for system development duplication. Schedule for integration of external sensor capabilities has been re-baselined to match the PB22 system development funding profile.
