Description

Platform Aerospace proposes augmenting Airborne ASW operations with an Ultra-Long Endurance Unmanned Aerial System (ULEUAS) capable of expanding the P-8’s current search capability, providing extended on-target coverage, reducing counter detection risk, and aligning high-cost manned flight hours to the highest priority missions.  Platform offers the world-record holding Vanilla ULEUAS as the test-case for UAS-mounted Magnetic Anomaly Detector (MAD) deployment and ASW communications-relay operations.
