Expeditionary Ground Control SystemThe Expeditionary Ground Control System system was designed to be a complete, transportable UAS computing and storage platform. It has the computing power, system resources, data storage, and interface capability to monitor and control multiple UAV Airframes and their associated ISR Payloads.

Coupled with Sharkfin UAS Management Software the Expeditionary Ground Control System is a complete, transportable UAS and ISR Ground Control System.

The Expeditionary Ground Control System includes:• Dual processing compute nodes capable of running multiple

instances of mission management and image exploitation software.

• NetworkedRAIDstorageforeasyscalinganddataredundancy.• Builtinredundancyassuringcontinuousoperationintheeventof
