GeauxSioux Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 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.
