(Near Earth) and Kaman Air Vehicles, a division of Kaman Corporation (NYSE: KAMN), announced today that they have been awarded a contract by the U.S. Army to demonstrate a resupply uncrewed aerial system (UAS) capable of moving loads with a minimum of 800 pounds and flying distances over 100 miles. This heavy-lift vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) UAS will take Soldiers out of harm\u2019s way and supplement resupply trips through added uncrewed lift capacity.<\/p>\n<p>\nToday, the Army depends on smaller drones and heavier crewed aircraft for resupply missions. This practice significantly heightens the risk for Army aircrews, especially when operating in hostile regions. The Army\u2019s heavy-lift Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) UAS program requirements match Near Earth\u2019s expertise in autonomous flight technology and Kaman\u2019s proven rotorcraft and uncrewed solutions capabilities. The joint effort aligns with Near Earth and Kaman\u2019s shared commitment to advancing the capabilities of military UAS and the ongoing modernization of military logistics operations.<\/p>\n<p>\nNear Earth is the prime contractor and is responsible for the autonomy system which will provide mission assurance through responsive autonomy, enabling Soldiers to focus on their primary mission rather than on controlling the UAS. The autonomy features include navigation, obstacle detection, and manual override systems. Essential components are designed to fail safely and function even if other parts of the system malfunction.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe UAS will be based on Kaman\u2019s KARGO UAV, a purpose-built autonomous Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) aircraft that will meet the needs of the Army in both lift capacity and endurance while ensuring mission success even in contested environments. Built with the U.S. Armed Forces future operating concepts in mind, the KARGO UAV offers a rugged design for easy transport and is capable of carrying up to 800 pounds of payload.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe UAS is designed for different missions by utilizing a common attachment system that will streamline configuration. This modularity supports Resupply\/Contested Logistics, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Electronic Warfare (EW), Communications Relay (CR), and Search and Rescue (SAR).<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;The HVTOL UAS program partnership with Kaman enables us to broaden our current scope from developing an aerial resupply aircraft for the Marine Corps to creating an autonomous multi-mission aircraft that can autonomously address a wide variety of critical needs,&#8221; said Sanjiv Singh, CEO at Near Earth Autonomy.<\/p>\n<p>\nRomin Dasmalchi, General Manager for the Kaman KARGO UAV business, stated, \u201cBetween Near Earth\u2019s expertise in aerial autonomy and Kaman\u2019s background in uncrewed logistics and rotorcraft manufacturing, we have the synergistic skills needed to develop a single aerial system that serves many different applications.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nIn 2022, the United States Marine Corps (USMC) selected the KARGO UAV for the Medium Unmanned Logistics Systems \u2013 Air (MULS-A) program managed by Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) PMA-263. The Army\u2019s partnership enables further development for broader use, including scaling the original KARGO UAV design for larger payloads. The partners will demonstrate the KARGO UAV&#8217;s capabilities at Project Convergence 2024, displaying applications ranging from cargo resupply to reconnaissance.<\/p>\n<p><b>About Near Earth Autonomy<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nNear Earth\u2019s technology allows aircraft to autonomously take off, fly, and land safely, with or without GPS. Their solutions enable aerial mobility applications for partners in the commercial and defense sectors. Near Earth bridges the gap between aerospace and robotics with complete systems that improve efficiency, performance, and safety for aircraft ranging from small drones to full-size helicopters. Their work won the 2022 Pittsburgh Technology Council AI\/ML\/Robotics &#8211; Innovator of the Year Award, the 2018 Howard Hughes Award recognizing outstanding improvements in fundamental helicopter technology, and was a 2017 finalist for the Collier Trophy, one of the top aviation awards in the world.
