Unmanned and Autonomous Systems: Advanced aerial lift package for medium sized unmanned surface vehicle.

Abstract

This is a new project beginning in FY2019 that will develop, integrate, experiment and demonstrate onboard a medium sized unmanned surface vehicle an advanced aerial lift package. This capability package will dramatically increase the range of regard of various sensor payloads that will be carried aloft. It is intended to be used on a platform being developed with Innovative Prototype (INP) and Leap Ahead Technology (LA-Tech) investments. That platform will serve as host for a wide variety of operationally focused capability payloads such as the advance aerial lift package being developed in this activity. These warfighter focused payloads will enable Unmanned and Autonomous Systems platforms to support the requirement to augment manned systems with less expensive, unmanned, fully autonomous systems that can operate in all domains.
