MARKET DEFINITION Unmanned Systems is a blended market which integrates four elements: Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAV), Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV), Unmanned Sea Vehicles (USV) and their corresponding C2 systems. Unmanned systems include unclassified defense-related unmanned, selfpropelled, aerial, terrestrial, sea-borne or submersible platforms. These systems operate without a human being positioned on or within the vehicle, and their operation is achieved through autonomous, remotely operated or tele-operated control.
MARKET BOUNDARIES
The Unmanned Systems market includes:
  • UAVs to include: fixed-wing, rotary wing and hybrid (e.g. tilt-rotor) aerial vehicles
  • USVs to include: combatants, (surface and submarine), amphibious support, counter-mine detonation systems, mine warfare, auxiliary, coastal patrol, sealift, and Intel-ops vessels
  • UGVs to include: defensive and offensive combat vehicles, combat support vehicles, logistics vehicles and Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) vehicles used by a military organization
  • Tethered and un-tethered variants of above UAVs, USVs and UGVs
  • Significant system upgrades, modernization or refurbishment programs
  • Equipment-specific service and support contracts for unmanned systems
The Unmanned Systems market does not include:
  • Manned air, land, sea or space systems or Space or exo-atmospheric vehicles
  • One-way attack platforms such as missiles and torpedoes (contained in Missile & PGW markets)
  • Target systems not intended for re-use
