This roadmap provides Defense-wide vision for unmanned systems and related technologies. The Department will continue to promote a common vision for future unmanned systems by making this roadmap widely available to industry and our Allies, and updating it as transformational concepts emerge. Unmanned systems will continue to have a central role in meeting our country's diverse security needs, especially in the Global War on Terrorism. ~-- Under Secretary ofDefense Intelligence w1tt-:~/ mes E. Cartwright J G. Gri es General, USMC Assistant Secretary ofDefense Vice Chairman, Jo' t Chiefs ofStaff Networks and Information Integration Unmanned Systems Roadmap 2007-2032 Executive Summary Today’s military has seen an evolution in technology that is creating an entirely new capability to project power through the use of unmanned systems while reducing the risk to human life. The contributions of unmanned systems continue to increase. As of October 2006, coalition Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UASs), exclusive of hand-launched systems, had flown almost 400,000 flight hours in support of Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom, Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) had responded to over 11,000 Improvised Explosive Device (IED) situations, and Unmanned Maritime Systems (UMSs) had provided security to ports.

  • OVS -‐ Season 3 Episode 1: Where There Is
    ! OVS - Season 3 Episode 1: Where There Is Shadow, There Is Light ! Act I ! Remy quickly called for the paramedics to send up a kit to him and a backboard. Shaking his hands from the cold, he grabbed the bag and dropped it near his side. As he was opening the bag, he turned to the paramedic who had stuck his head up through the hatch. "Call down and get them to bring the ?ire trucks as close to the lighthouse as they can. They're going to need a large ladder to bring her down." Somehow on the narrow platform they were going to have to load the injured woman on the board to get her down safely. Quickly, he grabbed a blanket from the kit and wrapped it around Natalia's lower body and then turned to look back to Natalia with an apologetic look. ! Olivia could feel the shivers from her partner as the younger woman lay in her arms. Keeping pressure on the wound with one hand, she felt around her with one hand and located the blanket Natalia had been using earlier. She wrapped it around her partner's shoulders, then returned to apply pressure, and noted the wince on the younger woman's face. Continuing to gently brush her ?ingers along Natalia's face, Olivia wished that somehow she could do more. "Hold on, sweetheart. You're going to be okay. See. Remy's here taking good care of you." ! Checking the injured woman's pulse again, Remy noted that it was racing. He slid the blood pressure cuff onto the woman's upper arm and pumped it up.
