Research abstract
The US Navy (USN) is interested in the development of a reconfigurable Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Launch System to add to an Expeditionary Sea Base (ESB) Navy Ship as a self-contained mission-driven kit. The ability to launch UAVs from an ESB provides the USN with additional lethality, ability to project force, and increase the range of Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities. Corvid Technologies proposes to utilize our established simulation-based design and optimization process to develop innovative launcher technologies to realize these benefits. Concepts will be developed and assessed based on the key metrics identified. Based on Corvid’s design process, the optimal design will be down selected for Phase II prototyping and testing.
