Degraded Visual Environment (DVE)
Abstract
The DVE project portfolio includes the DVE Army DR and the EES. The DVE DR is to provide DVE systems to 15 HH-60M Blackhawk MEDEVAC helicopters and 25 Special Operations aircraft. The DVE DR fulfills an immediate DVE requirement while bridging the gap between future DVE capabilities. The DVE DR system provides a forward looking, situational awareness, fused-sensor image for single aircraft takeoff and landing in brownout conditions. The program completed development and test efforts in support of the DVE DR in FY 2019. The EES program focuses on active and passive sensor technology, synthetic vision, sensor and software data fusion, imagery processing, user interface, and multicore processing technologies to enable current and future capabilities and innovative technical solutions for the current Army aviation fleet to safely operate in DVE. The EES program will equip Combat Aviation Brigades with evolving modular DVE solutions creating revolutionary tactical advantages while increasing survivability.
