KMAX Experimentation and Support

Abstract

Funding provides for experimentation for unmanned cargo operations and includes complimentary Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), payloads, advanced sensors, autonomy; efforts to refine requirements and concept of operations (CONOPS); and support of future unmanned programs of record, such as Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Expeditionary (MUX). The CQ-24A Cargo UAS is a unique, unmanned, sling-load capable aircraft that has had demand signals including moving cargo in permissive environments (e.g. food, fuel, medicine), combatting forest fires, and flying to locations that present dangerous or deadly conditions to humans (such as biological threats or radiation hazards).
