New Complex Military and Civil UAV/RPA Classification System for Registration, Administrative Purposes, and Special Operation Preparation

Absztrakt

In addition to the existing different UAV classification terms (e.g. NATO JAPCC, UVSI, US ARMY, EASA, CAA, etc.), the article deals with the necessity and possibilities of creating a new, more sophisticated and unified classification system, combined with a high security labelling system that provides a more professional registry of UAVs (both civilian and military). Based on the new unique code system, it is possible to clearly identify the most essential properties and specification data (e.g. payload, armaments, hanging points, sensors, range, endurance, speed and altitude ranges, weather minimums, etc.), nature of use (e.g. military recon/assault, SAR, agriculture, law enforcement, recreation, hobby, commercial, etc.), type of flight modes, risk level (combined with accident statistics), cost of the unit, VIN, etc. It also helps the efficient work of law enforcement agencies/authorities to check the lawfulness of UAV operation onsite (database contains photos, insurance status and other detailed information), avoiding corrupt identification of the unit.
