Containerized Weapon System - Counter UAS
Abstract
This effort will prototype the ability to counter threat Group 3 small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) that operate at higher altitudes with significant standoff range. Leveraging existing investments in the Containerized Weapon System (CWS), this project will optimize the operator's Fire Control Station to enable Group 3 sUAS engagement.? The operator's Fire Control Station will provide single operator, automated slew-to-cue, and improved Target Verification System.?? All of which enhance the weapons suite to enable the targeting and defeat of Group 3 sUAS. This effort will culminate in a live-fire experimentation of the prototype system in FY26.
