About this file
This document details salient characteristics for a rotary wing drone intended for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) operations. The specifications outline comprehensive technical requirements for a small, lightweight drone with a 35-minute minimum flight time, 4-6 km line-of-sight range, and operating capabilities between 15°F to 105°F. Key technical specifications include a 2-4 lb weight, 12" x 5" x 4" dimensions, carbon fiber or composite construction, and a brushless motor preference.
The drone must feature advanced operational capabilities such as a dedicated remote controller with secure data link, mobile app integration, waypoint navigation, return to home functionality, and orbit mode. Sensor requirements include a minimum 1080p/4K electro-optical camera, 640x512 infrared camera, forward and downward obstacle avoidance cameras, and a 3-axis stabilized gimbal. Critical operational parameters emphasize data security with AES-256 encryption, Lithium Polymer battery, 32GB internal storage with microSD support, and communication frequencies of 1.8 GHz or 5 GHz. The document is part of a Department of the Army solicitation (W911S725QA0007) for Fort Leonard Wood drone procurement.
