What's next for the Pentagon after the Replicator programme?
Although the Replicator initiative has made several accomplishments, there are still multiple gaps to plug across the US Department of Defense (DoD) and its services.
UAV Solutions supports Johns Hopkins University
UAV Solutions will provide engineering support services for The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHU APL) under a four year contract announced on 25 September.
The contract, with a ceiling value of $20 million, will see UAV Solutions provide general engineering services to support APL in the development of unmanned vehicle capabilities and payloads.
Services will include engineering, design, manufacturing, testing, and evaluation in the areas of small (less than 600lb gross) unmanned vehicles, unmanned vehicle payloads, and associated ground support equipment.
Billie Ann Davidson, vice president, UAV Solutions, said: ‘UAV Solutions has a history of supporting APL prototype and development requests with rapid turnaround times and with high quality products. With our full-service manufacturing capabilities, including in-house additive rapid prototyping, we can take concept designs and translate them into functioning components to meet customer requirements.’
