Tactical UAV under development
Ted on 2004/01/05:
„"They could program it with a laptop or a PDA and give it a GPS location, or they may have a map on their laptop or PDA, and they may just select a point on the map and just say, 'Go there,' and then they will take the airplane out, throw it in the air and it would get there."“

„ The Multipurpose Security and Surveillance Mission Platform (MSSMP), started in FY'92 as the Air-Mobile Ground Security and Surveillance System (AMGSSS) , is designed to provide a rapidly deployable, extended-range surveillance capability for a variety of operations and missions, including: fire control, force protection, tactical security, support to counterdrug and border patrol operations, signal/communications relays, detection and assessment of barriers (i.e., mine fields, tank traps), remote assessment of suspected contaminated areas (i.e., chemical, biological, and nuclear), and even resupply of small quantities of critical items. The MSSMP system consists of three air-mobile remote sensing packages and a base station.“http://www.nosc.mil/robots/air/amgsss/ mssmp.html - Cached
„The agreement also opens up new possibilities for cooperation, such as EU participation in ESA optional programmes, or ESA management of EU space-related activities. “The framework agreement will be judged mainly according to its success in helping to generate valuable new programmes and activities responding to the demand of citizens expressed through the EC”, Dordain added. Official signature of the framework agreement is envisaged on 27/28 November, on the occasion of the EU Council in Brussels.“http://www.flug-revue.rotor.com/frnews1/frnews03/ fr031116.htm - Cached
„All key tactical information is displayed on the monitor. Typical scenarios include single and multiple fixed wing, rotary wing, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and/or Ballistic Aerial Targets (BAT). The Engagement Skills Theater provides a one stop, cost effective training facility where a unit commander can train all of his small arms and antiarmor assets at the same time.“http://www.lewis.army.mil/cwcp/tescom.html - Cached
„UAVs afford the joint force commander (JFC) air operations that are unmanned, long endurance, proximate, and persistent in the battlespace. These inherent strengths are improving with miniaturized electronics, laser communications, and global command and control networks. The future battlespace will witness autonomous UAV operations as powerful microchips push the boundary of artificial intelligence.“http://www.airpower.maxwell.af.mil/airchronicles/cc/ jaquish.html - Cached
