| Abstract: |
Sensintel Inc., White River Technologies, and Raytheon Missile Systems propose to develop a small unmanned aircraft system (UAS) magnetically quiet enough to enable the employment of small Magnetic Anomaly Detection (MAD) sensors and capable of performing the High Altitude Anti-Submarine Warfare (HAASW) target interrogation and identification mission profile. The solution, the Magnetically-quiet Expendable Sono-Launched Unmanned Aircraft System (MESL UAS), will be developed leveraging the vast experience of the team members in this arena; specifically with Sensintel's small sonobuoy launched UAS development experience. |
| Benefits: |
It is Sensintel's vision to further develop the MESL UAS and demonstrate its capabilities to the US Navy in order to win the selection as the platform of choice for the HAASW Future Naval Capability (FNC) in the future demonstration phases. Once the team has successfully demonstrated the system capabilities as a part of the FNC, we hope to transition to the fleet as a Program of Record (POR). |
