DARPA Seeks Rapid, Long-Term Deployment UAVs DARPA Seeks Rapid langsiktig Distribusjon UAVs

Flight International reported that “[u]ltra-long endurance and ultra-fast deployment are the targets of new US programs to demonstrate technology for future autonomous aircraft.” Seeking “to push the boundaries of unmanned aviation to extremes,” the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has created projects such as the Vulture program, which calls for the demonstration of “unmanned aircraft capable of staying aloft for five years.” Program manager Daniel Newman explained that while “the challenges of an ‘infinite endurance’ aircraft are enormous,” success would mark a “paradigm shift” were aircraft are “no longer define[d]…by the launch, recover, maintain, launch cycle.” Newman detailed the “three architecture options” of the project, as well as potential “energy cycle solutions.” Nuclear power solutions, he noted, are “barred from consideration.” Flight International also reported on the Rapid Eye program, which seeks the development of “a UAV that could be rocket-deployed to anywhere in the world within hours.” That program is scheduled to “to get under way soon as a companion to the Vulture.” Flight International rapporterte at "[u] ltra lang utholdenhet og superrask distribusjon er målene for nye amerikanske programmene for å demonstrere teknologi for fremtidig autonomt fly." Søker "å presse grensene for ubemannet luftfart til det ekstreme, det amerikanske Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) har opprettet prosjekter som gribb, som ringer for demonstrasjon av "ubemannet fly som er i stand til å bo værs i fem år." Program manager Daniel Newman forklarte at mens "utfordringene i en" uendelig utholdenhet 'fly er enorme, "suksess vil merke et" paradigmeskifte "ble fly er ikke lenger definere [d] ... etter lanseringen, gjenopprette, vedlikeholde, lansere syklus." Newman detaljert de "tre arkitektur alternativer" av prosjektet, samt potensielle "Energilivssyklus løsninger." kjernekraft løsninger, han bemerket, er utelukket fra vurdering. "Flight International rapporterte også om Rapid Eye-programmet, som arbeider for utvikling av" en UAV som kunne rakett-deployert til hvor som helst i verden i løpet av timer. "Det er planlagt å" komme i gang snart en følgesvenn til gribb.
