UAS ROADMAP <strong>2005</strong><br />
2.6 UAS PROGRAMMATIC DATA<br />
Between 1990 and 1999, DoD invested over $3 billion in UAS development, procurement, and operations<br />
(see Table 2.6-1). In the wake <strong>of</strong> September 11, 2001, FY03 was the first billion-dollar year in UAS<br />
history and FY05 will be the first two billion-dollar year (see Figure 2.6-1 and Tables 2.6-2 and 2.6-3).<br />
The U.S. UAS inventory is expected to grow from 250 today to 675 by 2010 and 1400 by 2015 (not<br />
including micro and mini UA) and to support a wider range <strong>of</strong> missions—e.g. signals intelligence<br />
(SIGINT), cargo, communication relay, and Suppression <strong>of</strong> Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD)—compared to<br />
today’s imagery reconnaissance and strike roles.<br />
