Counter Unmanned Aerial System (CUAS)
Abstract
The objective of this program is to research, develop, integrate, generate rapid prototypes, test and evaluate cutting edge Counter-Small Unmanned (Aerial, Ground, Maritime) Systems. This effort will support a CUAS Sensor Integration Module (SIM) Family of Systems (FoS) that integrates various detection sensor modalities (passive sensors, Radio frequency (RF) detection, acoustic, Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), radar, day/night Short-Wave Infrared, Mid-Wave Infrared, Long-Wave Infrared (SWIR/MWIR/LWIR) imaging, etc.) along with defeat systems into a SIM. The results of this effort will enhance the soldiers ability to detect, track, identify and defeat specific stand-off weapon threats, to acquire objects of military significance before the soldier is detected and to target threat systems accurately for engagement by the soldiers. This system integration will take the man-out-of-the-loop for detection of threat systems and include man-in-the-loop for defeat capabilities. To accomplish this objective, the project will be broken down into the following: (1) technology and concept evaluation, (2) prototype development, and (3) prototype evaluation and assessment. This program received overseas contingency operations (OCO) funding in FY2019.
