                            a. Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV) project [24]: the objective of this
                               project is to demonstrate the effectiveness of using UCAV to effectively
                               and affordably prosecute twenty-first century lethal strike missions within
                               the emerging global command and control architecture.
