Zitat:US Army Selects Textron, Griffon to Advance RQ-7B Shadow Replacement Programhttps://www.thedefensepost.com/2023/09/2..._article=1
The US Army has selected Griffon Aerospace and Textron Systems to proceed to the second phase of its RQ-7B Shadow drone replacement program. The two companies edged out AeroVironment, Northrop Grumman, and Sierra Nevada Corporation in the Future Tactical Unmanned Aircraft System (FTUAS) Increment 2 competition.
According to the service, Griffon and Textron were chosen after a careful evaluation of proposals focusing on performance, modular open systems approach (MOSA), costs, and associated risks. [...] In the second phase, the army will evaluate weapon system designs, leading to a critical design review and light demonstrations.
