איך הצליחו לשלב כטב"מים עם מטוסים מאוישים?

היקף טיסות הכטב"מים יעלה בצורה משמעותית בעשור הקרוב, אך קיימות בעיות רבות בהשתלבותם במרחב האווירי הכולל מטוסים מאוישים. פלטפורמה דינמית חדשה ממלאת בהצלחה את דרישותיה של ארה"ב בתחום המסחרי והאזרחי ובמשימות הצבאיות שלה. הטכנולוגיה הוכיחה כי כטב"מים קטנים יכולים לטוס בצורה בטוחה במרחב אווירי מפוקח תוך

When Airspace is Too Crowded

With the increasing number of unmanned aerial systems in the air, keeping the skies safe is critical. Drones will not be permitted to fly beyond line of sight without properly mitigating the risk of collision with manned aircraft. Detect and avoid technologies will be essential, analogous to the

 Airport Security Market Still Influenced by 9/11 Attack

New Horizons for AR Tech

Aircraft surfaces, or “skins”, are periodically inspected for cracks and corrosion caused by pressurization and depressurization cycles in order to prevent failures. A new augmented reality (AR) solution under development could make the process of inspecting aircraft surfaces much simpler, faster a

Infra-Red Tech Enhances Anti-Missile Defense

NATO has been enhancing its capabilities in the anti-missile sphere. Elbit Systems was awarded a follow-on $46 million contract to supply additional J-Music DIRCM (Direct Infrared Countermeasures) self-protection systems to NATO for its Airbus A330 Multinational Multi-Role Tanker Transport Fleet
