The Department of the Army is procuring sustainment services for the command, control, communications, computer, and intelligence (C4I) systems of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) including Shadow, One System Remote Video Terminal (OSRVT), and Hunter from Textron Systems Corporation under a $5.8 million contract. These services maintain the ground control stations, data terminals, and communication links essential for operating these tactical UAS platforms, which provide reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition up to 125 km from brigade operations centers. This supports ongoing Army UAS capabilities amid upgrades like extended endurance and improved payloads for enhanced battlefield intelligence.
