Missile Delivered UAV

Systima Technologies, Inc. is proposing to develop an end-to-end integrated solution to rapidly deploy an Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV) from a missile platform for real time ISR. Specifically, the objectives of the proposed effort are to allow the warfighter to quickly reach out long distances with an ISR platform from within the organic structure of the Infantry Brigade Combat Team. This will provide valuable and timely targeting, situational awareness, and/or damage assessment beyond the reach of currently available IBCT organic assets. The objective of the Phase I effort is to develop an integrated concept for a missile delivered UAV. This work will show how the UAV can be integrated into the available payload section of the missile, be deployed from the missile system at target area, and the available mission profile upon deployment. The Phase I Option will demonstrate the deployment technology in laboratory conditions. Upon completion of the Phase I program the concept will be ready for prototype development and flight drop testing in the Phase II program.
