Low Level Meteorological Data Over the World's Oceans Is Hard to Collect, Due to the Cost and Difficulty of Sensor Emplacement. Crewed Aircraft Are Deployed When Major Weather Events Arise, But Between Those Major Weather Events, In-situ Data Sources Are Very Limited. Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) Present a Unique Opportunity to Inexpensively Collect Meteorological Data From Remote Areas, But Current Systems Cannot Meet the Cost and Capability Thresholds to Make Data Collection Economically Viable. in the Preceding Phase I Effort, Dragoon Demonstrated the Ability to Carry a Meteorological Sensor for Very Long Periods, Using an Internally Developed Platform to Fly a 26-HOUR, 39-MINUTE Data Collection Mission. This Proposal Outlines the Next Steps in Developing and Testing an Optionally Disposable Uas Platform for Weather Data Collection. the Proposed Work Includes Research Into Novel Manufacturing Methods to Decrease the Cost of Uas, as Well as Hybrid Powerplant Development for Incre

Everything here is this single award's whole record — signed, amended, paid — not a fiscal-year slice. The by-year charts elsewhere split an award across the years it was committed; this page keeps it whole.
Committed is what the government has legally promised on this award so far. Contracts can also carry a ceiling — the maximum if every option is exercised. Unspent ceiling is headroom, not money owed.
The cash actually disbursed against this award. The gap from committed is the disbursement pipeline: promised, not yet cashed.
Each transaction is a signing event — an action that created or changed the award, dated the day it was signed — not a payment. Negative amounts are real: money de-committed at closeout or renegotiation.
One bar, the award’s whole arithmetic: paid out, then committed, not yet paid, then .
