Reconnaissance Surveillance Targeting - Vehicle (RST-V) Concept/Requirements Report

Abstract

This report is considered to be an interim report for the RST-V Study Contract. The basic top level objectives of this RST-V Study are to: (1) Identity concepts, architectures, and technologies supportive of the RST-V System/Segment Specification (DRAFT, Revision 03, 26 March 1996); (2) Identify those currently defined requirements that are not considered to be realizable with technologies that are either available now or will be available for effective use within the RST-V Advanced Technology Demonstrator (ATD) which is scheduled for fabrication and initial testing in FY 1999; (3) Provide definition and availability estimates for technologies supportive of RST-V Specification requirements. Technology availability will be categorized into three time frames: (a) Can be built today or is relatively low risk for RST-V ATD; (b) Can support RST-V ATD upgrades (3-5 years out); (c) Can only support developments beyond five years out. This report summarizes RST-V Study progress to date and focuses on the following topics which were suggested at the RST-V Kickoff Presentation held on April 16,1996: Requirements Analysis; Mission Analysis; Concepts Developed; System Trade Studies; and, Vehicle Weight Analysis.
