Homeland Convoy Counter Drone Operations
**Summary of Q&A Changes:** Two new Q&As were added clarifying partial solution eligibility. Q1 (new) and Q2 (previously Q1, reordered) both address whether effector-only or partial C-UAS solutions are acceptable. The updated answer emphasizes that while partial solutions are permitted, they require "detailed and reasonable explanations" of non-proposed system portions. Q1 additionally clarifies that low-collateral, non-RF, and non-consumable approaches align with objectives. Q3 (previously Q2) remains substantively unchanged regarding stop-and-scan operations and alternative sensing approaches.
