What we need

• High level requirements to drive vehicle attributes

• Attributes to determine MOEs & MOPs• Initial System Architecture• More defined requirements• Speed up the process. Team is falling behind

the GMU schedule.

Vehicle Design

• Define Vehicle Attributes• Choose Criteria, Subcriteria, and MOEs

• Maneuverability• Payload• Endurance• Safety (Survivability)• Modularity / Configurability• Autonomy• Deployability• Lethality

What next?

1. Develop a Candidate List2. Overlay defined criteria against candidate list’s

specs of currently available vehicle systems3. Identify the deficiencies between the established

criteria for the next generation system4. Develop a scorecard using direct weighting or AHP5. Develop requirements for new vehicle6. Develop a system architecture
