BAE SYSTEMS UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEM TAKES WOLFPACK SENSORS TO THE AIR

NASHUA, N.H. – BAE Systems recently demonstrated its vertical takeoff and landing unmanned aerial system (UAS) at Fort Benning, Ga., for Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and U.S. Army representatives.

The unmanned system is designed to fly for more than one hour, and deploy a signals intelligence (SIGINT) payload, known as “WolfPack.” As part of DARPA’s Network Centric Experiment VIP Demonstration in January, BAE Systems integrated WolfPack with its UAS to demonstrate the deployment and relocation of the sensors.

De otra nota de prensa:
The electronic wolves are designed to hunt down and disrupt the kinds of radio signals an enemy may use on a battlefield. Like real wolves, the advanced sensors devised by BAE Systems hunt in "packs," communicating and interacting with each other over a wide area. Like wolves, they operate intelligently and purposefully.
