CF joint Arctic experimentation 2012 : potential use of UXVs in CF Arctic operations / Mae L. Seto, DRDC Atlantic ; Paul Pace, DRDC Ottawa ; David MacKay, DRDC Suffield ; Robert Thwaites, CFMWC/NETE.: D68-6/003-2013E-PDF

"Canadian Forces Joint Arctic Experiment 2012 (CFJAE12) was a joint capability development experiment conducted in and around Gascoyne Inlet, Nunavut from Aug 4-23, 2012. It was conducted in accordance with the Canadian Forces Strategic Experimentation Guidance and funded through the Strategic Experimentation Account. CFJAE12 was implemented by DRDC Centres – specifically, Suffield, Ottawa, and Atlantic. The maritime parts were based off CFAV QUEST (Atlantic) and the shore-based aerial parts (Suffield, Ottawa) were based at the DRDC Gascoyne Inlet Remote Camp. CFJAEA12 examined autonomous systems (UXV) such as fixed and rotary wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), unmanned surface vehicles (USV), and unmanned underwater vehicles (UUV) as sensor platforms for future CF operations in harsh and remote environments like the Canadian Arctic. In such environments it can take days for external help to arrive in response to an incident or emergency. The focus of CFJAE12 was on Humanitarian and Disaster Operations (HADO) and Canadian Arctic sovereignty patrol missions"--Abstract, page i.
