Overview
Program Title
CBP - Tactical Aerostat Program
Description
The TAS Program consists of equipment that assists USBP with detecting, deterring, identifying, classifying, and resolving illegal border activity. TAS s goal/objective is to help meet DHS s, CBP s, and USBP s mission of protecting the U.S. from various 21st century threats and adversaries by enabling capabilities that address challenges in surveillance, threat response, and resource support with the use of technologies. The TAS Program is currently a gap-filler measure until other steady-state technologies come online but has the potential to be used for other contingency needs within CBP or (DHS), such as a rapid surveillance capability for disaster response or national security events. TAS supports the Border Security Operations Program.
