MQ-9 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)
Abstract
As the supported combatant command in global operations, USSOCOM requires the capability to find, fix, finish, exploit, and analyze time-sensitive high-value targets. These targets can often only be identified with patient collection of information and require rapid, decisive action during the short periods in which they present themselves. This project addresses the primary areas of Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Target (ISR&T) Acquisition and Strike. The majority of the developmental funds provides for the Operational Flight Software (OFP) for the aircraft, Ground Control Station, and Turret. SOF peculiar modifications to the OFP allow for a rapid integration of emerging capabilities in order to maintain relevance and dominance of the MQ-9 in support of the National Defense Strategy.
