On April 1, AeroVironment, Inc<\/a>. announced its selection by the United States Navy to provide Contractor-Owned, Contractor-Operated (COCO) Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) services in support of critical naval operations. Under the Navy\u2019s recently announced initiative to expand and modernize ISR capabilities, AV will compete for delivery orders alongside other selected industry partners to deliver turnkey persistent ISR support\u2013with autonomous platforms, multi-sensor integration, and intelligence expertise.<\/p>\n

AV\u2019s JUMP 20-X Group 3 vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) uncrewed aircraft system (UAS) will equip the Navy with expanded ISR capabilities tailored to support diverse land and maritime missions. The platform enables multi-domain missions with fully autonomous, hands-free operation and more than 13 hours of flight time, a 115-mile (185 km) range, and 30 pounds of payload capacity. With more than 70 different payload integrations, JUMP 20-X is uniquely configurable to meet mission-specific requirements. The system is engineered to eliminate the need for bulky launch and recovery equipment, simplifying logistics and enabling rapid deployment while reducing required operational space.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are honored to be selected as a partner to help the U.S. Navy expand its ISR services and enhance mission-critical awareness for warfighters around the globe,\u201d said Shane Hastings, vice president of medium uncrewed systems at AV. \u201cWe have the people and product to deliver a superior capability across the fleet and are committed to supporting our customers with a flexible, scalable, full lifecycle ISR solution\u2013any mission, any domain.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a win for AV and a win for the US Navy,\u201d said Hastings. \u201cOur technology is deployed, proven, and mature. Our team is ready to deliver. We are reshaping our nation\u2019s ISR capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n
