Abstract
This Project matures and demonstrates intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, targeting, and pilotage technologies in support of the Army's aviation and networked systems. This effort focuses on improved reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition, pilotage sensors, high-resolution heads-up displays, sensor fusion, and aided target recognition (AiTR) capabilities for Army vertical lift aircraft, utility helicopters, and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in day/night, obscured, smoke, adverse weather, and other Degraded Visual Environments (DVE). UAS payload efforts mature and demonstrate small, lightweight, and modular payloads (e.g. electro-optical/ infrared, laser radar, designator) to support target detection, identification, location, tracking, and targeting of tactical targets for the Brigade Combat Team. Work in this Project is fully coordinated with Program Element (PE) 0602211A (Aviation Technology) and PE 0603003A (Aviation Advanced Technology). FY 2020 realignments are due to financial restructuring in support of Army Modernization Priorities. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project is performed by the U.S. Army Futures Command (AFC).
