00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000


2
00:00:08,810 --> 00:00:10,588
A collaborative combat aircraft 

3
00:00:10,588 --> 00:00:12,960
platform , or CCA conducted flight 

4
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,182
testing at a California test location . 

5
00:00:15,359 --> 00:00:17,415
This new unmanned aircraft could one 

6
00:00:17,415 --> 00:00:19,359
day fly alongside new and existing 

7
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:21,526
crude fighter jets and be equipped for 

8
00:00:21,526 --> 00:00:23,637
air to air and air to ground combat , 

9
00:00:23,637 --> 00:00:25,470
electronic warfare , targeting , 

10
00:00:25,470 --> 00:00:27,359
intelligence , surveillance , and 

11
00:00:27,359 --> 00:00:29,415
reconnaissance . This milestone test 

12
00:00:29,415 --> 00:00:31,581
took place less than 2 years since the 

13
00:00:31,581 --> 00:00:33,748
program began and provided information 

14
00:00:33,748 --> 00:00:35,859
on the aircraft's safety , autonomy , 

15
00:00:35,859 --> 00:00:38,081
and mission system integration . CCA is 

16
00:00:38,081 --> 00:00:40,248
a key component of the next generation 

17
00:00:40,248 --> 00:00:42,248
air dominance family of systems and 

18
00:00:42,248 --> 00:00:44,303
reflects a new model for software to 

19
00:00:44,303 --> 00:00:47,479
find modular airpower . The first 

20
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,646
flight using an alternative navigation 

21
00:00:49,646 --> 00:00:51,529
software aboard an Osprey Mark 3 

22
00:00:51,529 --> 00:00:53,610
unmanned aircraft took place at Duke 

23
00:00:53,610 --> 00:00:55,499
Field near Eglin Air Force Base , 

24
00:00:55,499 --> 00:00:57,900
Florida . This test examined the 

25
00:00:57,900 --> 00:01:00,122
feasibility of providing an aircraft or 

26
00:01:00,122 --> 00:01:02,500
weapon with its own internal GPS rather 

27
00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:04,722
than using external sources , which are 

28
00:01:04,722 --> 00:01:06,889
prone to issues that deny the aircraft 

29
00:01:06,889 --> 00:01:08,889
the ability to maneuver in a combat 

30
00:01:08,889 --> 00:01:10,889
environment . The long-term goal of 

31
00:01:10,889 --> 00:01:13,111
alternative navigation is for the force 

32
00:01:13,111 --> 00:01:15,278
to gain a new capability navigating in 

33
00:01:15,278 --> 00:01:17,556
contested environments with a low size , 

34
00:01:17,556 --> 00:01:21,449
weight , power and cost solution . A 

35
00:01:21,449 --> 00:01:24,199
new HH60W Jolly Green 2 rescue 

36
00:01:24,199 --> 00:01:25,921
helicopter conducted the first 

37
00:01:25,921 --> 00:01:28,143
overwater countermeasure test during an 

38
00:01:28,143 --> 00:01:30,143
engagement with an F-15D Eagle near 

39
00:01:30,143 --> 00:01:32,032
Moffett Air National Guard Base , 

40
00:01:32,032 --> 00:01:34,032
California . This first of its kind 

41
00:01:34,032 --> 00:01:36,199
aerial engagement simulated real world 

42
00:01:36,199 --> 00:01:38,199
scenarios to test the Jolly Green's 

43
00:01:38,199 --> 00:01:39,866
countermeasures and defensive 

44
00:01:39,866 --> 00:01:41,810
capabilities against modern aerial 

45
00:01:41,810 --> 00:01:43,977
threats over water . Test data will be 

46
00:01:43,977 --> 00:01:46,143
used for future training and equipment 

47
00:01:46,143 --> 00:01:47,755
upgrades aimed at increasing 

48
00:01:47,755 --> 00:01:49,921
survivability of rescue helicopters as 

49
00:01:49,921 --> 00:01:52,143
the Jolly Green replaces the HH60G pave 

50
00:01:52,143 --> 00:01:54,310
Hawk . That's your look around the Air 

51
00:01:54,310 --> 00:01:56,199
Force . I'm Senior Airman Spencer
