Abstract
This article analyzes the integration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) into maritime robotic complexes. The reasoning of the efficiency of the UAVs application for solution of surveillance-and-search and search-and-rescue tasks at sea is presented. Analytical review of the existing UAV of domestic production and the analysis of the application of foreign UAVs at sea are carried out. As the result of analysis of specifics for UAV application within maritime robotic complexes, the basic predicted functional, structural, technical and operational requirements applicable to UAV complex for use at sea are determined.
Key words
Sea-based unmanned aerial vehicles, UAV, surveillance-and-search operations, search-and-rescue operations, UAV efficiency.
