1. Key Finding 1: Current RPA automation implementations either underautomate,
over-automate, or fail to provide a flexible human-centric solution.
Insufficient and inflexible automation/sensor processing increases pilot workload,
increases incident rates, degrades mission performance and agility, and inhibits
distributed cross-platform collaboration.
2. Key Finding 2: Poorly-designed Operator Control Stations (OCSs) fail to
provide effective, robust, and safe RPA mission management because of a lack of
accepted systems engineering design practices, a lack of Human-System
Integration (HSI) design and implementation, and closed and stovepiped
architectures that constrain “best of breed” component solutions.
3. Key Finding 3: Limited communications systems result in communications
latency, link vulnerabilities, and lost-link events, which limits mission roles
assigned to RPAs, operational flexibility, and resiliency in the face of
unanticipated events.

enough in that lot to explain how contact was lost, even without any jamming
