Conclusions: -Small UAS has extreme difficulty lasing moving targets in high density urban environments -Lasing moving targets in medium density terrain is possible but not certain -Lasing of stationary targets is not an issue given LOS -Perch-and-Stare may be the best choice for surveillance of a point or intersection -Surveillance of an intersection by hovering gives better performance than a circular flight path around the area *Next Steps -TRAC used this data in conjunction with Soldier interviews on the operational ability/benefits of the FW and RW Small UAS when compiling the final report - AMSAA will be conducting an additional UAS Mix Analysis using improved methodology for FOCUS.
