Volans-i intends to modify and demonstrate existing C20 UAS to meet AFSOC customer requirements. This includes enabling sustained resupply for 24 hours of a small team located in a mountainous region with forests with the team separated from the ground control base of over 100 miles away. This would require multiple flights with both aerial delivery and landings to a small team moving on the ground, which would require updated refined coordinates as the UAS moves closer to the team. communication message. The Volans-i team will work with the stakeholders to demonstrate the capabilities using our C20 aircraft.
