Bell Eagle Eye Cost Effectiveness
• Reduced Cost / Improved Safety
- Operates from “runwayless” environments, close to the engaged forces providing up to an 8:1 effectiveness advantage
- Provides increased battlefield flexibility- Interoperability with the landing force- Performs both short and close range missions- Has the space, weight and power to carry
surveillance, targeting, EW and lethal payloads- Broad range of speeds improves targeting and
permits the use of EW payloads (ship decoy, etc.)
- Fully integrated, dual redundant flight control system- Extensive Operator / maintainer automation reduces workload and training- Less space, equipment and manpower results in a leaner, less costly force structure- Extensive off-the-shelf man rated components

Summary
Eagle Eye TR911D meets all the VTUAV ORD KPP and threshold requirements and half of the objective requirements
Enables “From the Sea” - OMFTS concept / doctrine
Current VTUAV acquisition strategy will produce an ORD compliant system soonest at lowest cost
Eagle Eye is mature technology
Eagle Eye reduces the life cycle cost to less than 50% of the current fielded system (Pioneer)
Executable within funding constraints
Provides for growth
