A system concept is described that would give individual combat users access to and (limited) control of a network of unmanned air vehicles. Applications would be both lethal and nonlethal. In the lethal form, unmanned combat air vehicles could respond to fire support requests as if they were the virtual equivalent of organic, long-range artillery. In the nonlethal form, unmanned reconnaissance air vehicles could point their sensors at locations and/ or areas of interest and respond with target imagery or coordinates of selected target types. Capabilities currently exist to evaluate these concepts in simulated or actual field trials and/or to develop an initial operating capability (IOC).
