Unmanned and Optionally Manned Systems

Abstract

Mature and apply tactical behavior algorithms and safe-flight technologies to enable unmanned and optionally manned aircraft to maintain safe, responsive, flexible, and tactical formation flight with manned helicopters for unmanned wingman applications in re-supply, reconnaissance, surveillance and attack missions. Develop, mature, apply, and integrate advanced decision aiding, autonomy, and human-machine interface technologies to enable the helicopter flight crew to make full use of the capabilities of an unmanned aerial system (UAS) without requiring continuous attention. Efforts include development of intelligent algorithms that aid decisions and actions in order to increase situation awareness, maximize use of on-board and off-board sensors, efficiently manage a team of manned and unmanned vehicles and their mission systems, and develop and execute effective and appropriate offensive and defensive responses.
