Acquisition of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), including sustainment, support and training

The Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation

The framework agreement covers the purchase of NATO Class I Unmanned Aerial Systems (hereafter “UAS”) for the Danish Defence. A UAS consists of a number of Unmanned Ariel Vehicles (hereafter “UAV”) and two Ground Control Stations (hereafter “GCS”) as the main components.
The UAS will be used in support of operations with primary tasks to include Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance as well as support to Artillery Call For Fire. The UAS are intended to be used in both national and international operations. Consequently, the UAS are intended to be frequently moved to locations where needed and they will be used for training purposes as well as in live operations, throughout their operational lifetime.
The individual UAV is intended to be operated from a total of three vehicles; two trucks with ISO containers and an armored vehicle, making it possible for the operators to continually operate the UAV while moving the GCS(s) from which the UAV is operated.
The UAS and GCS setup is expected to be a turnkey solution.
The UAS shall be able to be deployed worldwide in a large variety of climatic and weather conditions and shall be designed and equipped to perform all tasks in a secure and safe manner.
The individual UAV shall be able to carry and operate a Synthetic Aperture Radar and the primary payload (daylight and/or night sensors) at the same time.
While carrying and operating the primary payload, the UAS shall comply with the following requirements:
- the UAV shall have an On-Station Time of at least 8 hours at a range of 90 kilometers
- the UAV shall be able to take off and land within an area of maximum 20x20 meters.
These requirements are further described in the procurement documents.
The framework agreement includes an initial purchase of three UAS and two extra GCS.
Furthermore, the framework agreement covers the purchase of sustainment (spare sparts and repair services), other support services and training services related to the UAS, as well as additional UAS subsystems.
