Science: Our Tool and Inspiration Applying in-depth research, development, and operational experience MDS offers US Federal and International governments a unique resource in the quest to conceptualize, design, and economically deploy terrestrial and space based systems. Our diverse background includes participation on programs performing Modeling and Simulation (M&S) in support of UAV research and development, engineering and functional management support of ISR platforms, research in the areas of directed energy and space awareness, and survivability analyses of NC3 facilities. Focused on the resolution of challenges requiring vigorous engineering analysis, our staff have participated in numerous mission centric and critical efforts. Representative programs include:

comprises weapon system analysis
MDS has been awarded a
contract to provide analytical, advisory, technical expertise and
analysis for near space ISR programs. Variants integrated are both
manned (U-2) and unmanned (UAV - RQ-4/EQ-4). Work will include
analysis involving systems, subsystems, data links, communications,
training systems, and intelligence systems as these relate to
current and future programs. The team will analyze and coordinate
requests for CONUS |
