UAS UAS –– Unmanned Aircraft SystemUnmanned Aircraft System
Unmanned aircraft (UA) An aircraft designed to operate with no person on board capable of exercising any control over the aircraft.
Unmanned aircraft system (UAS) The combination of unmanned aircraft (UA), system elements necessary to enable the taxiing, take-off/launch, flight and recovery/landing of UA, and the elements required to accomplish its mission objectives.
UAS elements - Control station (s)- Software- Health monitoring- Communication link (s) (command & control + data)- Data terminal (s) (payload exploitation)- Payload (s)- Launch & recovery systems- Flight termination system (s)- Support & maintenance equipment- Power generation, distribution & supply- Air traffic control communications equipment (voice + data)- Handling, storage & transport equipment- All required documentation related to aforementioned
Non-Recreational Purposes
Light UAS
Unmanned aircraft with a mass <150 kg.

Most military UAS are still “user specific”High development costs + low volume production =
High acquisition cost & high ownership cost
No standards No airworthiness normNo certification norms No ATM regulations Involved communities do not speak the same languageInvolved communities do not speak the same language
Critical Issues : Sense & Avoid, Spectrum & BandwidthInsufficient R&D funding
Flight in non-segregated airspace is impossible
