shows that the mishap rates of the recent, larger UA track closely with that of the F-16 fleet at a
comparable point in its career.

Survivability
Aircraft survivability is a balance of CONOPS, tactics, technology (for both active and passive measures),
and cost for a given threat environment. For manned aircraft, aircraft survivability equates to crew
survivability, on which a high premium is placed. For UA, this equation shifts, and the merits of making
them highly survivable, vice somewhat survivable, for the same mission come into question. Insight into
this tradeoff is provided by examining the Global Hawk and DarkStar programs. Both were built to the
same mission (high altitude endurance reconnaissance) and cost objective ($10 million flyaway price was
not achieved by either program); one (DarkStar) was to be more highly survivable by stealth, the other
only moderately survivable. Performance could be traded to meet the cost objective. The resulting
designs therefore traded only performance for survivability. The low observable DarkStar emerged as
one-third the size (8,600 versus 25,600 pound) and had one-third the performance (9 hours at 500 nm
versus 24 hours at 1200 nm) of its conventional stable mate, Global Hawk. It was canceled for reasons
that included its performance shortfall outweighing the perceived value of its enhanced survivability.
Further, the active countermeasures planned for Global Hawk’s survivability suite were severely reduced
as an early cost savings measure during its design phase.
The value of survivability in the UA design equation will vary with the mission, but the DarkStar lesson
will need to be reexamined for relevance to future designs. To the extent UA inherently possess low or
