Lockheed Martin

Company Overview

During 2006-2007, Lockheed Martin provided technical, engineering and administrative support to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in its efforts to integrate an Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS plan into the U.S. National Airspace System. During the process, our work assessed UAS-related activities within the FAA, industry and other government agencies such as the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Commerce, and National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Products included comparative analysis of UAS market surveys with development of corresponding FAA resource demand curve projections; as well as a 5-year Unmanned Aircraft Program Office (UAPO) program plan documenting project objectives, supporting task efforts, a program master schedule, and resource requirements.
