Airborne Cueing & Exploitation Sys-Hyperspectral(ACES HY)

Abstract

The purpose of the Airborne Cueing and Exploitation System Hyperspectral (ACES HY) project is to provide Hyperspectral Imagery (HSI) sensors and capabilities for MQ-1 Predator Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) and other manned and unmanned aircraft. ACES HY supports the sponsoring combatant command, Central Command (CENTCOM), and other warfighter requirements. ACES HY will initially procure multiple sensors with a target platform of MQ-1B Predator Block 15 and develop the necessary training, maintenance and fielding plans to support a working architecture. FY08 funding ($10.922M) was executed out of PE 0305206F, BPAC 674818. Activities also include studies and analysis to support both current and future program planning and execution. This program is categorized as Budget Activity 7 because it provides for development of technologies and capabilities in support of operational system development.
