Air Vehicle and Avionics Systems

Abstract

The Air Vehicle & Avionics System effort will evaluate available air vehicles and select one based on its ability to meet the Joint/Air Force Requirements as defined in the AoA, ICD and CDD. It will deliver greater unrefueled range, increased fuel efficiency, higher operational ceiling, and possess the ability to operate from shorter runways than the current platform. All of these attributes provide for operational capabilities that meet the requirements of the mission profiles considered in the AoA. Of note is the fact that multiple Air Vehicle manufacturers have standard design kits that modify commercially available air frames to meet anticipated JSTARS Recap fuselage and power requirements, thereby reducing development time, cost and risk.
