WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio (AFNS) -- he XQ-58A Valkyrie demonstrator, a long-range, high Tsubsonic unmanned air vehicle completed its inaugural fl ight March 5, 2019, at Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona. The Air Force Research Laboratory partnered with Kratos Unmanned Aerial Systems to develop the XQ-58A. This joint eff ort falls within the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Low Cost Attritable Aircraft Technology, or LCAAT, portfolio, which has the objective to break the escalating cost trajectory of tactically relevant aircraft. The objectives of the LCAAT initiative include designing and building UAS faster by developing better design tools and maturing and leveraging commercial manufacturing processes to reduce build time and cost. Developed for runway independence, the aircraft behaved as expected and completed 76 minutes of fl ight time. The time to fi rst fl ight took a little over 2.5 years from contract award. The XQ-58A has a total of fi ve planned test fl ights in two phases with objectives that include evaluating system functionality, aerodynamic performance and launch and recovery systems. “XQ-58A is the fi rst example of a class of UAV that is defi ned by low procurement and operating costs while providing game changing combat capability,” said Doug Szczublewski, AFRL’s XQ- 58A Program Manager.
