Nellis Air Force Base Renews UNIFY.C2 Contract Following Successful Year-Long Counter-UAS Evaluation

Renewed contract reinforces the value of vendor-neutral sensor integration and a unified common operating picture for Counter-UAS operations.

DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, October 7, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — UNIFY.C2 announced today that Nellis Air Force Base has renewed its contract for the UNIFY.C2 Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Mission Command Platform following a successful year-long evaluation.

The renewal marks an important transition from evaluation to continued operational use and signals Nellis Air Force Base’s confidence in UNIFY.C2’s ability to support a complex and evolving Counter-sUAS mission.

During the initial contract period, UNIFY.C2 provided operators with a unified common operating picture that brought together data from multiple sources, technologies, and manufacturers. Building on capabilities already in place, UNIFY.C2 streamlined the operator’s workflow, consolidating sensor interface displays, tracks, alerts, and decision-relevant information into a single operational environment.

The renewed effort will continue supporting a collaborative Counter-sUAS approach involving Nellis Air Force Base, Creech Air Force Base, and the Nevada Test and Training Range. Together, the organizations continue to strengthen a coordinated approach that supports installation defense, flight-line security, training operations, range activities, and other mission requirements across the Las Vegas valley.

“We are proud to continue supporting Nellis, Creech, and the Nevada Test and Training Range,” said Jerry McGee, chief executive officer of UNIFY.C2. “The decision to renew after a year of hands-on use reflects confidence in the platform and in our team, and in UNIFY.C2’s ability to bring different systems and different vendors together without creating additional complexity for the operator.”

Nellis Air Force Base serves as a central hub for advanced training, testing, tactics development, and operational readiness. Creech Air Force Base and the Nevada Test and Training Range add distinct mission environments, operational requirements, and geographic considerations that require a flexible and coordinated airspace-security architecture.

By working collaboratively, the organizations are enhancing shared situational awareness across the Counter-sUAS mission and establishing an adaptable foundation that can evolve as threats, technologies, and mission requirements change.

UNIFY.C2’s vendor-neutral architecture allows government customers to select the sensors and technologies best suited for each mission instead of being restricted to a single manufacturer or proprietary ecosystem. The platform can integrate multiple detection modalities—including radar, radio frequency, Remote ID, electro-optical and infrared, acoustic, cooperative surveillance, and other emerging capabilities—into one common operating picture.
This approach allows Nellis, Creech, and the Nevada Test and Training Range to retain existing investments, incorporate new technologies as they become available, and configure different combinations of sensors based on the operational environment.

“Counter-sUAS cannot be solved with a single sensor, a single modality, or a single vendor,” McGee said. “Different missions require different technologies. UNIFY.C2 provides the connective layer that allows those systems to operate together and gives defenders one place to understand what is happening, assess potential threats, and coordinate an appropriate response.”

The renewal also reflects a broader shift toward sustained, operationally relevant Counter-sUAS capability. Through continuous modernization and agile integration, Nellis, Creech, and the Nevada Test and Training Range are actively evaluating available technologies, optimizing existing capabilities, integrating complementary systems, and streamlining operator workflows to maximize operational efficiency.

That proactive approach helps reduce risk, improves operator familiarity, and creates a scalable framework for introducing future sensors, data sources, and authorized response capabilities.

UNIFY.C2 is designed to reduce operator workload by correlating information from distributed defense networks and presenting it within a single command environment. The platform supports real-time sensor fusion, track management, operational coordination, alerting, and operational reporting while allowing each organization to maintain visibility appropriate to its responsibilities.

The continued collaboration among Nellis Air Force Base, Creech Air Force Base, and the Nevada Test and Training Range represents a forward-looking model for addressing Counter-sUAS requirements across interconnected installations and mission areas.

“Mission needs evolve quickly,” McGee said. “We are proud to continue supporting this mission and to deliver an operational picture that can adapt at the speed of changing requirements.”
