NATIONAL HARBOR, Md., Sept. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Surrounded by a crowd of defense journalists at the Air Force Association's annual Air, Space and Cyber Conference, Insitu leadership today announced Integrator Extended Range, a beyond line of sight, SATCOM-enabled small UAS capable of ranging modern combat theaters. The system delivers Group 4 and 5 capabilities in a Group 3 aircraft including:
This new option enables users to save money by augmenting higher cost systems with a small UAS, freeing up the larger strike-capable unmanned assets to conduct more of the kinetic missions for which they were designed. In addition, Integrator ER will put more eyes and ears in dangerous environments around the world to give our troops on the ground a common operating picture that heightens their awareness and brings them home safely.
"Insitu has always been at the forefront of customer-inspired innovation, and our exceptional team has delivered another ground-breaking capability," said Esina Alic, Insitu president and CEO. "High quality, long endurance ISR - to include FMV and SIGINT- remains one of, if not the most requested and unmet need for the Department of Defense. With our announcement today, all warfighting units and coalition partners can have access to what was once a limited resource, getting this much-needed capability in the hands of the warfighter at a fraction of the cost of any current system available today."
