## Description

The Combat Identification (CID) Program Element (PE) 63742F is currently seeking advanced multi-sensor, multi-platform fusion solutions for air-to-ground automatic target recognition (ATR). These solutions will be developed under a new CID program referred to as: Universal Multi-sensor Processing for Intelligent Recognition and Evaluation (UMPIRE). The intent of this Statement of Objectives is to identify Technology Readiness Level (TRL)-3+ algorithmic solutions and existing Air Force platforms mature enough to facilitate a 4–5-year development to TRL-7. This includes algorithm development, validation, system integration, demonstration, and transition.
