MQ-1 Gray Eagle - Army UAV (MIP)
Abstract
The MQ-1C Gray Eagle provides the Army with an extended range, multi-purpose (ERMP) unmanned aircraft system (UAS); capable of executing reconnaissance, security, attack, and intelligence collection missions in the range of military operations (ROMO). Sensors/payloads include an Electro-Optical/Infrared/Laser Designator (EO/IR/LD), Synthetic Aperture Radar/Moving Target Indicator (SAR/MTI), Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), and HELLFIRE missiles; providing a near all-weather mission capability. MQ-1C Gray Eagle is a dedicated, assured, multi-mission Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) fielded to all Army Divisions, Intelligence and Security Command and Army Special Operations Command in support of the commander's warfighting priorities. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 MQ-1 Gray Eagle funding of $9.574 million will support Test and Evaluation efforts associated with the MQ-1C Gray Eagle Extended Range Engineering Change Proposal (ECP). The test effort will evaluate overall system level performance to ensure it meets developmental and operational requirements. The types of effort required include Environmental Testing, Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) testing, transport/mobility testing, logistics demonstration, and Follow-On Operational Test and Evaluation (FOTE II).
