The Defense Systems Information Analysis Center (DSIAC) is searching for information on electronic warfare (EW) payloads/packages for use in cheap, attritable solutions ($10-$15K, $30K max).

  1. What service labs are developing EW payloads/packages for sUAS (group1/2)? What companies can be leveraged to create attritable EW payloads?
  2. Are there any solutions on the market -or- in development for personnel with limited EW experience? What automated/AI capable EW packages are available to limit user involvement? i.e. robust frequency hopping, automated signal jamming, etc.
  3. How much electrical power is required for the EW payload? Is there a viable solution for addition of an EW payload with an amplifier that doesn’t increase weight significantly?
  4. What payloads can easily switch between different sUAS airframes?
