Hyperspectral Sensors

Abstract

The Hyperspectral Sensors project develops Hyperspectral Imagery (HSI) sensors and capabilities for MQ-1/MQ-9 Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) and other manned or unmanned aircraft. Within this project, the Airborne Cueing & Exploitation System-Hyperspectral (ACES HY) program helps to fulfill a portion of the sponsoring combatant command and Central Command (CENTCOM) current HSI requirements. The ACES HY program initially develops sensors for the MQ-1B Predator Block 15 and includes development of the required training, maintenance and fielding plans to support a working architecture. Activities within this project also include studies and analysis supporting current and future program planning and tech development for advanced HSI sensors and capabilities. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
