  New Call for Countering Unmanned Aerial Systems Coming // Nouvel appel de propositions pour vaincre les systèmes aériens sans pilote à venir bientôt

  New Call for Countering Unmanned Aerial Systems Coming In 2022, IDEaS will again be looking to the skies! After hosting a Sandbox in 2019 on Countering Unmanned Aerial Systems (CUAS), IDEaS will be inviting innovators to bring their ‘A' game in a new call for applications in the New Year. Come show us how your CUAS prototypes can solve the challenge and be integrated into the broader military command and control system. The original call sought technologies that could detect and/or defeat Micro and Mini Unmanned Aerial Systems, for which we are now seeking improved performance and integration. Visit the 2019 CUAS Results page to learn more on how the event unfolded and what we learned. Stay tuned for the new call to launch in January 2022. Stay tuned for opportunities to join and collaborate in Innovation Networks 5G research clusters! ​In Fall 2021, IDEaS invited Canadian Innovators to submit a Letter of Intent for the development of research clusters (called Micro-nets) under the newest Innovation Networks challenge: Faster, Stronger, More Secure: Advancing 5G capabilities and concepts for Defence and Security. The focus of the Micro-nets will be to conduct research to address DND/CAF needs with applications for:​ Architectures for Defence and Security Operations; Assured Performance and Security; or Applications and Sensors. Eligible Innovators screened in will be invited by the IDEaS Program to submit their Full Proposals over a period of 6 weeks. IDEaS will be posting the list of all screened in applicants in January 2022, including their proposal title, and lead researcher. We encourage organizations to build their network and reach out to be part of these growing micro-nets. Each funded micro-net will be eligible to receive up to $1.5M over 3 years to foster the development of a critical mass of researchers, highly qualified personnel, and expertise within the Canadian innovation community. Please join our mailing list to be the first to hear of this opportunity for collaborate. The IDEaS Team Nouvel appel de propositions pour vaincre les systèmes aériens sans pilote à venir bientôt En 2022, IDEeS regarde à nouveau vers le ciel ! Après avoir réalisé un Environnement protégé en 2019 pour en apprendre sur comment vaincre les systèmes aériens sans pilote (CUAS), IDEeS invitera les innovateurs à apporter leur savoir-faire dans un nouvel appel de propositions pour la nouvelle année. Venez nous montrer comment vos prototypes CUAS peuvent relever le défi et être intégrés dans un système de commandement et de contrôle militaire plus large. L'appel initial recherchait des technologies capables de détecter et/ou de vaincre les systèmes aériens micro et mini sans pilote, pour lesquels nous recherchons maintenant des performances et une intégration améliorées. Consultez la page des résultats CUAS 2019 pour en savoir plus sur le déroulement de l'événement et sur ce que nous avons appris. Ne manquez pas le nouvel appel de propositions qui sera lancé en janvier 2022. Les micro-réseaux 5G de Réseaux d'innovation commencent à prendre forme en janvier À partir de janvier 2022, les candidats retenus au dernier défi des réseaux d'innovation 5G auront la possibilité de commencer à unir leurs forces pour créer leurs micro-réseaux de recherche proposés. Les participants sélectionnés pour la phase de proposition du défi Plus rapide, plus fort, plus sécurisé : avancer les capacités et les concepts 5G pour la défense et la sécurité seront publiés sur le site Web d'IDEeS en janvier. Le titre de la proposition, l'organisation et le chercheur principal seront partagés afin que les candidats puissent commencer le processus de collaboration pour construire leurs micro-réseaux. Chaque micro-réseau financé sera admissible à recevoir jusqu'à 1,5 million de dollars (sur 3 ans) pour favoriser le développement d'une masse critique de chercheurs, de personnel hautement qualifié et d'expertise au sein de la communauté canadienne de l'innovation. Les participants doivent soumettre leurs propositions complètes au programme IDEeS dans les 6 semaines suivant la réception de la notification de la réussite de leur candidature. Inscrivez-vous à notre liste de distribution pour être averti lorsque la liste des participants sera disponible. L'équipe IDEeS

  Airbus reports strong progress in generating FWSAR work in Canada

  Airbus reports it is on track to provide Canadian industry with the required level of high-value work associated with the fixed-wing search and rescue (FWSAR) aircraft replacement in-service support (ISS) program. In its first FWSAR Value Proposition ISS annual report to the Government of Canada, submitted earlier this year and covering 2017, the company declared that more than 80 per cent of the ISS work was already being performed by Canadian industry in Canada. That data has now been validated and accepted by Canada. The activity, led by Airbus and its Canadian ISS integration partner AirPro – a joint venture with PAL Aerospace – is rapidly generating work and employment at partners such as CAE and Accenture. AirPro itself has already recruited nearly 20 highly qualified full-time staff to work on FWSAR ISS, and is adding resources in fields such as aeronautical engineering, architecture, construction, information technology and project management. More than 125,000 Canadian labour hours of work were performed by five companies in 2017 and the figure will grow more rapidly as many other companies begin their supply roles further into the program. The AirPro activity in particular will markedly increase as the Airbus CC-295 aircraft enters service and day-to-day ISS activities such as maintenance begin. Simon Jacques, president of Airbus Defence and Space in Canada, said: “We are proud of having made such a successful start to the development and transfer of capability to Canada with all the associated high value work that it brings. Ensuring an active role for AirPro in this set-up phase will ensure that it has a solid preparation for its ISS role in the operational phase. And this new expertise has the potential to be reused in other Canadian programs.” Canada's Industrial and Technological Benefits (ITB) Policy applies to the FWSAR contract and ensures that the total value of the contract is leveraged resulting in high-value jobs in the Canadian economy. The FWSAR program is supporting some $2.5 billion in Industrial and Technological Benefits to Canada, through high-value, long-term partnerships with Canadian industry. “The work done in Canada as part of the fixed-wing search and rescue project demonstrates the tangible benefits of our Industrial and Technological Benefits Policy for Canadian industry,” said the Honourable Navdeep Bains, minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development. “This project will provide the Canadian Armed Forces with the equipment and services they need to keep Canada safe, and the Industrial and Technological Benefits Policy ensures Canadians have access to middle-class jobs, growing our economy along the way.” https://www.skiesmag.com/press-releases/airbus-reports-strong-progress-in-generating-fwsar-work-in-canada
