  2. Overview • Problem Statement • Product Specifications • Final Design • Project Status • Parts Received • Potential Issues • Testing • Gantt Chart 1

  3. Problem Statement • Design and develop a Bomb Rack Unit (BRU) that is attached to the Tigershark UAV capable of housing and launching a cylindrical payload. • BRU must contain an electrical box which will allow space for an electrical team to design and integrate an electrical interface to control in-flight operation of the BRU. • Provide budget analysis for BRU • Design and construction of a prototype 2

  4. Tigershark UAV Platform Specifications: • Wing span 21 feet • Propulsion - 372cc two stroke • 20 gallon fuel tank • Empty airframe weight - 150 lbs. • Gross take off weight - 300 lbs. • Payload capacity – 50 lbs. • One hard-point location per wing for launcher attachment 3

  5. Constraints • BRU must not exceed 5 lbs. • Capable of holding a payload that is 10lbs • Operation in temperature range -20 to 60 degrees C and during rain exposure • Retain payload during aircraft maneuvers up to 2GS lateral load and 1G landing shock. 4
