Summary	This project further develops ASC-U and JDAFS to represent joint assets and robust mission sets. ASC-U will fully explore the parameter space of UAS type and mix possibilities through an effective design of experiments and by analyzing the assignment of UAS to various missions and the resultant UAS schedules. This effort will better enable joint analysis of UAS type and mix analysis for the future force. This effort will result in the outputs necessary for the analysis that underpins UAS type and mix decisions for the future force made by senior army decision makers. JDAFS will enable a credible methodology for joint starting conditions for other force on force simulations. JDAFS will be improved to represent and dynamically assign joint sensor platforms. It will be improved to allow its output to be easily ported into other simulations for setting joint starting conditions.
