Textron Systems has started to roll-out some of the advanced capabilities earmarked for the Shadow V2 tactical unmanned aircraft systems (UAS).

The upgrades brought in the Shadow V2 configuration enable a wider range of more advanced systems to be carried on the aircraft, in no small part due to the addition of the Tactical Common Data Link (TCDL) and the increase in power available.

The TCDL brings significant benefits, providing increased interoperability and encryption, and moving the communications out of a congested part of the spectrum and into the Ku-band. This enhancement will enable additional platforms to be operated more freely.

Speaking to IHS Jane's at AUVSI's Xponential 2016 conference and exhibition in New Orleans, Henry Finneral, Textron Systems' vice-president of tactical UAS, said that the first US Army units to receive the L-3 Wescam MX-10 payload will do so later this month and will operate the system in the US Central Command (CENTCOM) area of operations, which includes the Middle East and Afghanistan.

Further units are set to receive the MX-10 later this year, and Finneral explained that a range of new capabilities and systems will be phased into service including the introduction of Voice Over Internet Protocol connectivity and UHF Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) relay in the "fall of this year". Finneral also said that Shadow aircraft are operated with an IMSAR synthetic aperture radar on one mission.

Textron Systems is exploring how to improve manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T) between the Shadow and Apache attack helicopters and is looking at weatherisation of the platform to enable it to operate in more testing conditions.

Finneral also said that the company is looking at how to enhance survivability based on experience of threats encountered on operations, although he was unable to specify the nature of those threats, it is likely that Textron Systems are examining how to counter electronic warfare systems, as there is little room to fit any defensive aids that could be used against kinetic effects.

Analysis of commercial satellite imagery indicates increased activity at a program of development of a new Russian Altius-M long-range Unmanned Aerial Vehicle.

The images show the new drone at the airfield in Kazan. The Altius-M is a long-range Unmanned Aerial Vehicle develops by reconnaissance missions and destroying targets that have been detected.

In 2011, the Tranzas won the Defense Ministry’s tender for the development of two kinds of heavy drones, the “Pacer” and Altius-M, which weigh 1 metric tons and 5 metric tons, respectively.

The 5-ton Altius-M aircraft system uses a modular approach with a variety of payloads to perform strike, reconnaissance and electronic warfare (EW) missions using the Khibiny or Borisoglebsk-2 jamming systems.

The aircraft system features a long wing design with two under-wing turboprop engines and a V-shaped tail. By its size and weight, it is similar to the United States Air Force (USAF) MQ-9 Reaper.

The Altius-M first flight was completed during 2014 with testing to be carried out during 2015. Enter into service is planned for 2017 or later.

In one of the most significant tests of autonomous systems under development by the Department of Defense, the Strategic Capabilities Office, partnering with Naval Air Systems Command, successfully demonstrated one of the world’s largest micro-drone swarms at China Lake, California. The test, conducted in October 2016 and documented on Sunday’s CBS News program “60 Minutes”, consisted of 103 Perdix drones launched from three F/A-18 Super Hornets. The micro-drones demonstrated advanced swarm behaviors such as collective decision-making, adaptive formation flying, and self-healing.

São muito pequenos!!!!! Um enxame destes drones contra aviões........

"Each propeller-driven drone is only 6.5 in (16.5 cm) long with a wingspan of 11.8 in (30 cm) and weighs a mere 10.23 oz (290 g). At the moment, it has an air endurance of over 20 min and can reach speeds of 40 to 60 kts (46 to 69 mph, 74 to 111 km/h), can operate at temperatures of -10⁰ C (14⁰ F), and can endure the shock of being ejected from a fighter plane.

But the clever bit about the Perdix are how they are controlled. Since it isn't possible to control all 103 drones individually, they direct themselves – or rather, it directs itself after being told which of a series of tasks to perform."
103 drones lançados!!!!!!!

Pentágono testa "enxame" de 'drones' como arma militar


O Pentágono testou com sucesso um "enxame" de 103 pequenos 'drones' que permitem avançar para um novo tipo de armamento e sugerem "um grande futuro" para as estratégias militares, anunciou o departamento da defesa norte-americana.

Os avanços na área da inteligência artificial tornam hoje possível a formação de grupos de pequenos robôs que interagem coletivamente sob a direção de um humano.

Estrategas militares preveem um grande futuro para esses enxames de ‘drones’ (aeronaves não tripuladas), baratos e que em grande número podem dominar as defesas dos adversários.

O Pentágono (a designação comum do Departamento da Defesa) refere em comunicado que em outubro já tinha testado um enxame de 103 ‘drones’ com cerca de 16 centímetros de comprimento, lançados a partir de três aviões de combate F/A-18 Super Hornet.

Durante o teste os pequenos ‘drones’ Perdix demonstraram muitas capacidades promissoras, refere o comunicado, acrescentando que conseguiram coletivamente adaptar-se às vicissitudes da missão.

Os ‘drones’ Perdix formaram “um corpo coletivo que partilhou um cérebro comum”, explicou William Roper, que dirige o Departamento de Capacidades Estratégicas (SCO) do Pentágono.

“Porque cada Perdix comunica e colabora com cada um dos outros, o enxame não tem nenhum líder e pode adaptar-se se outro `drone` se junta ao grupo ou se algum falha” se por exemplo for abatido, explicou.

O SCO é um serviço do Pentágono criado pelo atual secretário da Defesa, Ashton Carter.

O departamento foi criado com o objetivo de acelerar a integração das inovações tecnológicas nos armamentos, criando novas armas.

O ‘drone’ Perdix foi concebido inicialmente por estudantes de engenharia do Instituto de Tecnologia de Massachusetts (MIT) em 2013 e tem sido continuamente melhorado.

Citar
The French Defence Procurement Agency (DGA) announced on 5 January that it has ordered 35 Spy'Ranger unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) from Thales for the French Army's Système de Mini Drone de Reconnaissance (SMDR) requirement.

The SMDR is set to replace the Airbus Drone de Renseignement Au Contact (DRAC), which has been operated by the French Army since 2008.

The initial contract, placed on 21 December 2016, covers a firm order for 35 systems and maintenance support for 10 years. The contract also includes provisions to raise the total of systems ordered up to 70, if required. Each system includes three UAVs and a ground control station.

Deliveries of the UAVs are scheduled to begin at the end of 2018.

The Spy'Ranger weighs 14.5 kg, has a 2.8 m wingspan, and an endurance of 2.5 hours. It is fitted with a Spyball turret with a day camera, infrared camera, and a laser target illuminator. Thales is said to have drawn on its experience with the French Air Force's new Reco NG reconnaissance pod in creating the Spyball and the networking systems of the Spy'Ranger. The UAV has a high-speed encrypted datalink, capable of operating in standalone mode with the ground station, or across a wider C4I network. This capability is said to have been a key factor in Thales winning the SMDR contract.
