Super Swarm (SS)
Abstract
Swarming is a concept that allows for multi-domain, heterogeneous swarms of unmanned systems capable of rendering the counter's ability to scale either inadequate or irrelevant and includes offensive and defensive operations, own and adversarial employment, and a physical battlespace ranging from open ocean to ashore. The Super Swarm (SS) INP effort will develop an autonomous control system for multiple USV's consisting of cooperative task allocation, cooperative route planning/behaviors and shared situational awareness. The Swarm autonomy technology is leveraged by other programs including the Medium Displacement Unmanned Surface Vehicle (MDUSV) and the Autonomous USV FNC program. It will consist of the employment of sustainable large-scale robotic swarm warfare across all domains ahead of our adversaries to obviate costly and vulnerable legacy platforms and to gain a competitive advantage.
