UND, NDSU partner on UAS project

An $11.4 million collaborative research project led by UND may soon add to an already lengthy resume of unmanned aircraft accomplishments in North Dakota.

Research on unmanned aircraft to be completed by the Limited Deployment of Cooperative Aircraft Project could assist North Dakota in becoming a future national test site for unmanned aircraft, UND officials said.

The project proposal, drafted by research and unmanned aircraft officials from UND and North Dakota State University, will be presented to a state commission within the next month in order to approve a $4 million state investment for unmanned aircraft research and technology production over the next two years.

HOEVEN: UND BECOMING WORLD LEADER IN UAS TRAINING, RESEARCH

U.S. Senator John Hoeven today helped dedicate the University of North Dakota Unmanned Aircraft Systems Training Center, another big step toward becoming the leading unmanned aircraft systems training, education and research institution in the world.

With this milestone, UND and North Dakota continue to build on our leadership position in both the manned and unmanned aircraft industry, Hoeven said. Here the world-class reputation of UND Aerospace is matched with world-class equipment, facilities and expertise. All combined this creates a very promising growth industry for our state.
