IOC: 2008
Total Production: 45
Origin: United States of America

Contractor/s: Textron

Description: The Eagle Eye is a tilt-rotor UAV designed to perform ship-based Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions. It can operate from both sea and land environments and is being developed by Bell for US Coast Guard and military customers.

The Eagle Eye was designed to be highly reliable and supportable. It can carry a wide range of payloads from electro-optical surveillance sensors to lethal weaponry. It was selected for the US Coast Guard's Integrated Deepwater VUAV (Vertical UAV) portion thanks to its vertical take-off and landing characteristics.

In 2003 Lockheed Martin selected Bell to develop and produce the Eagle Eye TR916 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to provide surveillance and reconnaissance in support of the US Coast Guard's Deepwater program. Under this contract Bell will produce and deliver 45 UAVs and 33 Ground Control Stations (GCSs).
