Unmanned Logistics System-Air (ULS-A)
Abstract
Previously funded JCTD. ULS-A supports the National Defense Strategy's focus on resilient agile logistics, advanced autonomous systems, and machine learning modernization. ULS-A will demonstrate the utility of unmanned aerial system (UAS) prototypes coupled with autonomous technologies to provide an organic, highly autonomous, aerial distribution capability that increases ground maneuver force agility, decreases carrying load, and allows the Joint Commanders to have ‘on-call’ control of mission essential and time-critical resupply. In FY 2019, ULS-A conducted initial prototype acquisition, and small and medium ULS-A autonomy technical demonstrations. ULS-A incorporated prototype improvements and new autonomy algorithms into the medium ULS-A and conducted a technical demonstration.
