NIGHT VISION SYS A/DEV
Abstract
This project supports the Army's transformation by developing payloads for brigade combat team, division, and corps Unmanned Aircraft Systems(UAS) and unmanned systems in accordance with Headquarters Department of the Army (HQDA) and Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) priorities. CSP Target Location Accuracy (TLA) is the final upgrade to CSP which will provide all of the CSP HD functionality but with significantly improved targeting accuracy. CSP TLA provides the Battlefield Commander a vastly improved TLA allowing timely use of Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMs) and Coordinate Seeking Weapons (CSWs) across the battlespace. CSP TLA is being procured as an upgraded capability for the Gray Eagle UAS program and can be integrated onto other manned and unmanned aerial platforms. The funds associated with this funding line are for the technology maturity of the TLA Laser. Once this laser technology has been matured to the appropriate Technology Readiness Level (TRL), it will be cut into the TLA development effort and eventual production to replace the CSP HD payloads on the Gray Eagle platform. This program has no FY 2013 Base or OCO requirement.
