Under the single-award contract, Leidos will also help the service branch integrate the UASGCS-Version 4 into the Universal Ground Control Station.
The contract has one base year plus three option years and includes system qualification, operational test amd certification efforts.
Leidos intends for its technology to support common baseline compatibility and resuability for current UAS as well as Army, Department of Defense and commercial software platforms.
