Revolutionizing Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Operations
Combined with best-of-breed gaming industry technologies with 35-years of Raytheon UAS knowledge and expertise, Raytheon developed UCS, a revolutionary, next-generation control system designed to address UAS operations issues by enhancing the performance and effectiveness of the operator with innovative features. Raytheon designed UCS around the operator rather than building the system first. UCS minimizes UAS issues by being operator-centric, and both situation awareness and operational capability are enhanced to conduct effective missions.
