2.3.5 CQ-10 SnowGoose
User Service: USSOCOM, Army Manufacturer: MMIST Inc.
Background: USSOCOM selected the CQ-10A SnowGoose to dispense leaflets for Psychological Operations (PSYOP), deliver small supply bundles to Special Operations Forces, provide aerial surveillance and communications relay capabilities. The SnowGoose is a powered, programmable, GPS-guided parafoil with modular payload bays that can carry up to six individual payload or fuel bins. The SnowGoose can be ground launched from a HMMWV or air-deployed from a C-130, C-141, or C-17 at altitudes up to 25,000 feet. From the ground, it can climb to 18,000 feet. It can carry up to 575 pounds of leaflets, supplies, or other fixed cargo payloads with an endurance of 1-3 hours or it can stay aloft with a 75 pound payload for 14-16 hours. (Note: Endurance is a function of the selection of ground launch or air launch parachute kit, with greater endurance achieved in its ground launch configuration). The SnowGoose is designed to operate with only four operators with a turn-around time of less than four hours between uses. The SnowGoose was originally developed as the Wind Supported Aerial Delivery System (WSADS) and refined in the Air-Launched Extended Range Transporter (ALERT) ACTD. The first flight occurred in April 2001, and IOC was achieved in Jan 2005.
