CLEAR FOR TAKEOFF
AMASS seeks to develop measures to counteract enemy counter-anti-access and -area-denial technologies by using a common command-and-control language.
UNMANNED DESIGN TRENDS
JETSON, which is part of the STAR-FISH initiative, seeks to develop enabling technologies for space-based radioisotope power systems.
ANGSTRM seeks to develop rad-hard non-volatile memory that combines packaging and radiation-hardening with state-of-the-art commercial technology.
The XQ-58A delivers a combination of long-range, high-speed, and maneuverability that can deploy weapons from its internal bomb bay and wing stations.
ROGUE-Fires vehicles will make the most of machine automation and unmanned systems technologies once they hit the beaches with the Marines.
UNMANNED BUSINESS
Order brings total value of this 10-year effort to $2.5 billion for research for the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Center at Redstone Arsenal, Ala.
Research will involve guidance, navigation, and control; thermal propulsion; fluid machinery; and materials technology and manufacturing.
Marines pick the Silvus StreamCaster 4400 MANET radios for the NOTM communications system on the JLTV and ACV armored combat vehicles.
MELT aims to capitalize on semiconductor fabrication, coherent beam combining, photonic integration, and 3D integration and packaging.
UNMANNED CONTRACT OPPORTUNITIES
Goals are launch and recovery; extended endurance and range; high tactical payload to weight ratio; robust flight controls; and autonomous navigation.
UAVs would have lethal and non-lethal weapons, and would be for units from the 4,413-soldier brigade combat team, to the 10-soldier infantry squad.
UNMANNED PRODUCTS
The M/C8200 and M/C6200 are based on the Teledyne e2v 67M and 37M monochrome and color sensors, and offers high interface speeds and resolutions.
Test and measurement support for CAN XL and 10Base-T1S standards in oscilloscopes will be critical to automakers as they implement CAN XL.
Camera offers a 23x zoom, 16x digital zoom, day and night mode with infrared cut filter removal, digital image stabilization, and the ONVIF interface.
These cameras can reach several thousands of frames per second in either partial scan mode, or with as many as 32 distinct region of interest.
