acquiring a system for joint evaluation.
ScanEagle
Background: ScanEagle is a long endurance, low cost UA. It recently
supported JFCOM’s Forward Look exercises, and two systems of eight
aircraft each deployed to Iraq to provide force protection for the 1st
Marine Expeditionary Force (I MEF). ScanEagle carries an inertially
stabilized camera turret for both EO/IR imagery. Its sensor data links
have integrated Cursor on Target (CoT) capability, allowing it to be
interoperable with other legacy systems and enabling the operator to
integrate operations with larger, high-value UA such as Predator through
the ground control station. Its Skyhook (near-vertical recovery system)
and pneumatic catapult launcher allow operations from ships or from
remote, unimproved areas. ScanEagle’s longest endurance flight aloft is
20.1 hours. A planned version will feature improved endurance of over
30 hours.
Aerosonde
Background: Aerosonde is a very long endurance, low cost
UAS. Aerosonde can carry a family of compact payloads including
TV cameras, IR cameras, ESM, and jammer electronics. Aerosonde is
currently operating at NASA’s Wallops Island Flight Facility, at an a
arctic facility in Barrow, Alaska, and at two locations in Australia. The
Office of Naval Research has purchased several aircraft along with
services for instrument/payload development. Aerosonde has also been
selected for the USAF Weather Scout Foreign Cooperative Test.

BATCAM
Background: The Battlefield Air Targeting Camera Micro Air
Vehicle (BATCAM) is the result of a Secretary of the Air Force
(SECAF) acquisition initiative. The program used very rapid
prototyping and field testing, in multiple spirals, with heavy
warfighter involvement. First flown in 2003, the BATCAM will
be a recoverable/attritable asset for the AFSOC Special
Operators and Air Force Battlefield Airmen. The BATCAM w
provide the ability to covertly navigate, reconnoiter, and target
objectives, ultimately enhancing situational awareness, reducin
fratricide, increasing survivability, and mission success rates.

assessment (MUA) in FY05-06, 25 MAV systems are to transfer to the Army in FY07.

Wasp variant has flown at sea level and at 5,000 feet and 105º F, and is capable of several hands-free,
autonomous flight modes, including GPS waypoint navigation, loiter, altitude and heading hold. It carr
fixed, forward- and side-looking color daylight cameras with real time video downlink, and uses the same
ground control unit as Raven. The Wasp MAV has been selected for Disruptive Technology Opportunity
Fund (DTOF) by the Navy to a) establish a preproduction capability for hardened, autonomous, handsfree
operation vehicles at a cost goal of $5,000 per vehicle; b) assess operational utility; and c) engage i
user-driven demonstrations and utility assessments. Prototype Wasp vehicles have flown off the USS
PHILLIPINE SEA in theatre in early FY04. Spiral 1 Wasp vehicles are currently (FY05) in user
evaluations with the US Navy’s STRIKE GROUP 11 and a number of Wasp systems are planned fo
evaluation by the Marine Corps in late FY05 and early FY06.
