Phase II of the HyperKelp project is dedicated to advancing the development of a buoy-based counter-hypersonics sensing system, building on Phase I's groundwork. The technical objectives include certification, security, and clearance requirements, payload integration onto the KSB platform, optimization of target acquisition performance, system performance characterization, integration with command and control systems, and end-user training and operational deployment.The work plan is structured to progress from initial planning to prototype development, testing, and operational deployment. Tasks encompass security compliance, prototype design and integration, signal processing optimization, testing and validation, command and control integration, and end-user training.This ĀPhase II aims to deliver a robust counter-hypersonics sensing system, enhancing national security capabilities against hypersonic threats. Through collaboration and systematic execution, Phase II sets the stage for the system's widespread adoption and deployment in Phase III.
