DARPA-SN-10-58 Proposer's Day Workshop Announcement Persistent Close Air Support (PCAS) Tactical Technology Office Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency

Within the PCAS program, DARPA seeks to: 1) Develop autonomous flight controls for an optionally manned/unmanned A-10 demonstration aircraft that will employ weapons based on a JTAC’s direct request 2) Identify and mature the critical enabling technologies necessary to enable JTAC interfaces at the tactical level to be able to accurately visualize and employ weapons on target from the A-10 aircraft, and 3) Conclude the program with a live-fire demonstration in which the JTAC commands weapons release from an optionally manned/unmanned A-10 demonstration platform.
