Counter-UAS Use Cases Wanted for FAA Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC)

Counter-UAS Use Cases Wanted for FAA Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC)

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recently announced the formation of the Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Detection and Mitigation Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) to make recommendations to the FAA on how to integrate counter-UAS technologies across the U.S., while preserving the safety and efficiency of the National Airspace System (NAS).  More info.

DRONERESPONDERS — the 501(c)3 non-profit program of AIRT that supports the use of small, uncrewed aircraft systems (sUAS) by public safety and emergency response organizations around the world — has been selected to participate in the C-UAS ARC and represent the public safety community.

We want your help identifying C-UAS use cases for public safety, emergency and disaster response, and security operations.  We are specifically interested in defining detection and identification use case needs for both covered sites and non-covered sites including special events, critical infrastructure, and other potential high-value targets (HVTs).

Please submit your C-UAS use cases for your agency or organization by clicking on the button below, and we will share them with the appropriate ARC working groups.
