Advanced EO sensor for multi-mission USN/USMC UAVs

The objective of the Phase II program is to design, build and test a prototype ISR Sensor Package through proof-of-concept demonstrations, to support littoral-zone warfare mission products; detection and characterization of low-contrast targets; and provide accurate geo-location of the products. The ISC team's ISR concept is based upon a set of requirements to completely satisfy this objective. The ISC team has conducted designs of several prototype ISR Sensors and determined the quantitative assessment of the performance of these sensors in an ISR role. The ISC's ISR Sensor consists of high performance HSI and HRI channels utilizing a low-weight, common fore-optics. ISC has designed two high performance HSI channels for the ISR Sensor, which will be compared, and one HSI approaches will be selected based upon mission performance, weight and cost. ISC, with TDRI, RAI, TRA, FERI, and SSI as subcontractors, provide a unique history of contract experience to successfully fulfill the objectives of the program. To satisfy the objective of the Phase II and Option ONR program, ISC will conduct the statement of work tasks presented in Section 3.0. Successful completion of the Phase II and Option, and the important Transition Option tasks will completely satisfy the overall program objectives.
