Description
Project Director Sensors - Aerial Intelligence (PD SAI) / Program Executive Office Intelligence, Electronic Warfare & Sensors (PEO IEW&S), in coordination with Project Manager Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (PM UAS) / PEO Aviation, is seeking information from Industry on capabilities and technology areas of interest associated with Launched Effects (LE) payloads. LE, to include both Air Launched Effects (ALE) and Surface Launched Effects (SLE), are a Family of Systems (FoS) consisting of an air vehicle, payload(s), mission system applications, and associated support equipment designed to autonomously or semi-autonomously deliver effects as a single agent or as a member of a team.
LE are operationally consumable air vehicles to increase sensors and effects in the Area of Operations (AO) to detect, identify, locate and report (DILR), deliver lethal and non-lethal effects, extend communications, conduct battle damage assessment (BDA), and provide protection of friendly formations. LE will be an integrated member of an ecosystem of heterogenous systems with many-to-many collaborations and control capabilities, meaning that groups of varying air vehicles can collaborate with other manned, unmanned, or mixed groups and controlled by different formations throughout the battlespace. LE will incorporate scalable autonomy providing varying levels of human-in-the-loop control. This will increase situational awareness while reducing operator workload, allow commanders to mitigate risk appropriately, and increase the speed and accuracy in their decision-making cycle. LE extends the speed, range, lethality, and survivability of maneuver formations through the integration of air vehicles, mission systems, and payloads. LE can be employed by many different elements; control of air vehicles and payloads can be transferred based on mission needs. ALE are launched from high altitude, medium altitude, and low altitude platforms. SLE are ground launched, and maritime vess...
