Multi-Domain Sensing System Adv Dev

Abstract

604036A / Project BY9 was established in Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 to support sensor prototyping for initiation of the Army's MDSS, a layered approach of Aerial Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (A-ISR) systems which allows for the best ability to achieve Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) capable deep sensing. The MDSS family of systems, including High Accuracy Detection and Exploitation System (HADES), High Altitude Extended Range Long Endurance, Intelligence Observation System (HELIOS), High Altitude Platform-Deep Sensing (HAP-DS), Aerial GEOINT Systems (ARGOS), and High Efficiency Radios Frequency (RF) Management & Exploitation System (HERMES), is comprised of a variety of platform/sensor combinations and MDO-capable, platform agnostic, scalable sensor programs that will provide for technical insertion into Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), medium altitude manned systems, and unmanned stratospheric A-ISR systems. These capabilities are enabled by emerging Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) processing and automated target recognition, autonomous sensor cross-cueing, sensor data correlation and resilient Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) compliant communications which shorten the sensor to shooter kill chain. 0604036A BY9 has no funding request in FY 2025.
