1 Practical Accommodation of RPAS in NATO Paul James, Staff Officer DI-AER

2 Touchpoints Sharing best practice level playing field NATO Consensus Standards and Interoperability JCG UAS Aims / Scope / Participation Capability development through cooperation Standards execution RPAS Airspace Integration Activities JCG UAS Current Efforts RAI IPT NATO AGS SOPs 2

3 JCG UAS Overarching Goals: Capability Advancement Interoperability Operational Effectiveness Acceptance in NATO Participation: NATO, PfP, Australia, Israel Approximately 200 participants from 20 countries including government and Industry in subgroups 3

4 Capability Through Cooperation Interoperable Systems Frequency Spectrum Command and Control Airspace Weapons Interoperability Standards Competition, Open source Industry collaboration Acquisition Strategy 1. Return on for Interoperability 2. Users needs shape interoperable approach 1. Affordability 2. Availability in the field 3. Shared benefits Requirements Requirements & CONOPS Standards, Specifications & architecture Contracting Execution 3. Interoperable Systems must be designed or they do not happen: CONOPS Standards & Specifications End User Warfighting s needs/ expectations System Delivery Programme Execution 20 JCGUAS member nations with more than 20 UAS in development 4

5 JCGUAS Engagement Targeted cross group coordination required to gain NATO UAS interoperability results Group Objective Means JCGISR Data Link, PED, and imagery format NIAG PED initiative C3 Agency Capacity planning for spectrum needs NAAG Exchange for Counter UAS evolution Cross participation ACT AWWCG UWWCG Key UAS capabilities in demand Surface unmanned systems coordination Underwater unmanned systems coordination STANAG 4817 STANAG

6 NATO JCGUAS Standards Execution C2 STANAG 4586 STANAG 4817 NIAG 53 Phase 1& NIAG 175 NIAG 202 Data Link STANAG 4660 NIAG 101 NIAG 140 STANAG 4671 NIAG 134 Airspace Integration STANAG 4702 STANAG 4703 STANAG 4746 UAS Weapon s + STANAG 4737 STANAG 4670 HFI SRD SAA SRD Autonomy Study PED Study NIAG 75 NIAG 125 NIAG 178 NIAG 205 Early ratified edition Current ratified edition Continuing work 6

7 JCGUAS / NATO Standards & Systems Applications Airworthiness, Light VTOL (4746) Airworthiness, Lite UAS (4703) Airworthiness, Rotary Wing (4702) Airworthiness, Fixed Wing (4671) Weapons Integration (4737) Interoperability, (4586) ISR Data C2 Data Link, (4660) Command & Control Training (4670) Human Systems Integration (4685) 7

8 RPAS Airspace Integration Activities UAS Related Standards (current) 4586 Standard Interfaces of UAV Control System (UCS) 4660 Interoperable C2 Data Link for Unmanned Systems (IC2DL) 4670 Recommended Guidance for the Training OF UAS Operators 4671 UAV SYSTEMS AW Requirements (USAR) 4702 Rotary Wing UAS AW Requirements (USAR-RW) 4703 Light UAS AW Requirements 4737 Guidelines for Integration of Weapons on Unmanned Platforms UAS Related Standards (in development) 4685 Human Systems Integration Guidebook 4746 Light Rotary Wing UAS System AW Requirements 4811 Guidance on Sense and Avoid for UAS 4817 Framework Architecture for Multi-domain Unmanned Platform Control Station 7232 UAS Tactics, Techniques and Procedures 7234 RPAS Airspace Integration Procedures 8

9 JCGUAS Current Efforts Continue UAS standards development plus application and maintenance of these standards Steps in UAS airspace integration beyond airworthiness including cross border operations and sense and avoid Advance Doctrine development from lessons learned by Nations Extend UAS related coordination among NATO Level II Groups for UAS capability development, including JCGISR, groups relating to Counter UAS, multi-domain unmanned systems, and spectrum capacity for UAS 9

10 RAI IPT AGS Airspace SOPs RAI IPT: Part One - Draft Ver 5 stable for AVC approval Part Two - NAGSF draft under review SHAPE prioritized airspace routes and airfields No showstoppers and ongoing consultation/ development 10
