What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionFCG has been tasked with creating a concept demonstration of a modular and automated loiter munition and UAS storage and launch POD(S) for multi domain use, to include trials on land and at sea, in order to accelerate the development of a cross domain modular system. Currently there are no in-service, cross domain (land/sea) automated, multiple loitering munitions launch systems. The benefits of such a system are that it can be deployed rapidly from either a maritime or land-based platform to prosecute targets at land and/or sea and would generate coherence across those domains.
Navy Command requires the delivery of a capability concept demonstration of a modular style ‘plug and play’ loitering munition automated launch and storage POD(s) to demonstrate cross domain capabilities firing loitering munitions with the aim of UK trials. This should be through four live/inert firing trials.
