US Air Force Issues RFI on NextGen sUAS
The Aeronautical Systems Center (ASC) Battlefield Airmen Branch (BA) is soliciting information to identify possible sources to provide next generation platform of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS), to support Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) dismounted users.
This Request For Information (RFI) is issued for informational purposes only focusing on existing capabilities, e.g., matured technologies and fielded systems.
The next generation sUAS addresses capability gap of current sUAS platform and joint forces requirement for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) with appropriate sensors to penetrate and operate with persistence in enemy airspace.
The sUAS will provide accurate, timely, and target-quality data to decision makers. Penetrating ISR forces should incorporate a diverse, integrated range of sensors to support the detection, classification, identification, precise geo-location and characterization of objects of interest. sUAS systems must operate in day/night and adverse weather as well as denied battle space.
