UH-60 UAV

February 4, 2010: The manufacturer of the American UH-60 helicopter
(Sikorsky) is investing up to a billion dollars to create a remotely
piloted UH-60. This requires developing better sensors and controls
for the remote operator, and providing improved flight control
software.

Both of these existing robotic helicopters [Boeing and Grumman] are
based on small helicopters. The UH-60 weighs ten tons. But a UH-60
UAVt would be able to carry more (or stay aloft longer) and perform
riskier missions. But operating such a larger helicopter remotely
requires some breakthroughs in UAV technology.
