Ultra Long-endurance Unmanned Reconnaissance Aircraft (ULTRA)Flight Demonstration

Abstract

This effort is not a new start. It is a flight demonstration of the ULTRA program, which was previously executed in FY24 under Program 0305205F Endurance Unmanned Aerial Vehicles; in FY23 and prior years under Program 0604555D8Z Operational Energy Prototyping, and under Section 219 authorities. This effort conducts integration and preparation work required to prepare the ULTRA platform for flight demonstration in operationally relevant environments in response to an urgent operational need. It leverages technologies and expertise from across all of the Air Force Research Laboratories, integrating and testing a variety of technologies.
