The U.S. militarys development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has been hampered by cost overruns, schedule slippage, and disappointing operation results. The High Altitude Endurance UAV (HAE UAV) joint program, initiated under the direction of the Defense Advanced Research Agency (DARPA), incorporates several innovative elements in its acquisition strategy that depart radically from traditional acquisition approaches. The programs development phase for the Global Hawk and DarkStar air vehiclesin analyzed in this research.

Preface
The High Altitude Endurance Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (HAE UAV) program, a joint program conducted under the direction of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), incorporates a number of innovative elements in its acquisition strategy. The objectives of this research are to understand how the various innovations affect the program outcomes and to identify the lessons of the HAE UAV program that might be applied to a wider variety of projects to improve DoD acquisition strategies.
The HAE UAV program includes two air vehicle programs, the Tier II Plus Global Hawk and the Tier III Minus DarkStar, and a Common Ground Segment. The program is divided into four phases. This study was initiated in 1994. The RAND study approach is to observe and report on the program, phase by phase. A report covering the Phase I experience of the Global Hawk was issued in 1997.1 This report covers the Phase II experience of all three components of the HAE UAV program; neither DarkStar nor the Common Ground Segment experienced Phase I. The information is complete through August 1998.
The reports covering the HAE UAV program are intended to be cumulative; that is, each successive report provides coverage of the entire program up to that point. Thus, some of the data presented in the earlier report on Phase I of the Global Hawk program is reproduced here in an abbreviated form.
