Why the Focus on UAV?
UAS System Engineering Challenges Analytic Boundaries What does “unmanned” actually mean? Impact on Acquisition Impact on Operations Impact on Training Safety Record Other Socio-technical issues
Analytic Boundaries
Who “owns” the UAS? OPCON/TACCON Maintenance Activity STANAG levels of control
“Uninhabited” vs Unmanned Maintenance
Mission Packages
Contractor logistics
Organizational Maintenance
Intermediate/Depot maintenance
Operators
What does “unmanned” actually mean? Levels of autonomy Ethical issues
Impact on Acquisition
Started as ACTD Rapidly evolving technology Support Systems
System Enhancement
Take-offlanding
Outer pilot
Material Changes•Carburetor Icing•Single Point of Failure Alarms•Autolaunch
Doctrinal Changes•Low fuel•Low oil•Launch ErrorEmergency
Procedures Training
Personnel Changes
Impact on Operations
