Naoruzan sa GBU-69B



MQ-1C uses COMINT, SAR to target ground-based emitters

Citat:“During the flight, the GE-ER identified emitters with Communications Intelligence (COMINT) payload while operating at 25,000 feet, cross-cueing the on-board Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) to produce precision coordinates sufficient for targeting within minutes,” says the company.

The COMINT payload was the L3Harris Nino COMINT system, while the SAR used was GA-ASI’s Lynx system.

The aircraft was controlled by GA-ASI’s laptop-based command and control system.

During the demonstration the aircraft also carried a pair of Area-I Altius-600 Air Launched Effects (ALEs). A subsequent test this summer will see the ALEs launched and controlled by the GE-ER.

“We are excited to team with industry partners to demonstrate these capabilities on the Gray Eagle ER,” says David Alexander, president, GA-ASI.

“The long-range radar, COMINT and ELINT packages, as well as launch and control of ALEs and the GBU-69B Small Glide Munition are all capabilities that are available today on the Gray Eagle ER.”

In January, the company said it had started demonstration flights for the GE-ER as a tactical ballistic missile spotter for the US Army’s future Long Range Precision Fires system.

General Atomics is pitching the radar-equipped MQ-1C as useful for operations over land or sea in the Pacific Ocean and European theatres. The Pentagon is concerned about new longer-range missile and artillery developed by China and Russia.

The GE-ER is an extended range version of the MQ-1C in service with the US Army. General Atomics pegs its endurance as “up to 40 hours.”

Abrupt End to MQ-9 Production Surprises General Atomics
Citat:A General Atomics official said the company is surprised by the Air Force’s plan to stop buying new MQ-9 Reapers in fiscal 2020, after expecting to gradually wind down the production line.
Chris Pehrson, General Atomics’ vice president of strategic development, told Air Force Magazine he anticipated the service would phase out purchases of its iconic hunter-killer drone over the next three to five years as the Air Force approaches the planned end of the 363-aircraft program. Instead, USAF revealed in its fiscal 2021 budget request that it wants to buy its last 24 Reapers this year, cutting the total buy to 337 MQ-9s. Those final Block 5 aircraft will be delivered in 2023 and 2024.
