Unmanned Surveillance And Reconnaissance Aerial Vehicle
An unmanned surveillance and reconnaissance aerial vehicle, is an unarmed military unmanned aerial vehicle, UAV that is used for intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition, and reconnaissance (ISTAR). Unlike unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV), this type of system is not designed to carry aircraft ordnance such as missiles, ATGMs, or aerial bomb, bombs for drone strikes. The main purpose is to provide battlefield intelligence. Small sized short-range man-portable unmanned aerial vehicles are called miniature UAV also used for battlefield intelligence. Current models The Harbin BZK-005 family encompasses reconnaissance variant like BZK-005 alongside combat-focused models like the BZK-005C. CH-1and CH-2 variants are for reconnaissance. Future models and technology demonstrators Belgium The Belgians were early adopters of reconnaissance UAVs, introducing the MBLE Épervier, "Epervier (Sparrowhawk)" UAV in the early 1970s. It was built by Manufacture Belge De Lampes Et ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Kronshtadt Group
The Kronshtadt Group (also romanized as Kronstadt), is a Russian manufacturer of unmanned aerial vehicles and cruise missiles. History Kronstadt began the development of the Kronshtadt Orion in 2011 as part of the Russian MoD-funded Inokhodets programme. The Orion is similar in design and role to the American Predator/Gray Eagle and the Chinese Wing Loong. The Orion is targeted at both the domestic and export market. A scale model of the Kronshtadt Sirius was presented for the first time in 2019 at the MAKS-2019 air show. By August 2023 Sirius made its first flight. A full size mockup of the Grom UCAV was unveiled at Army-2020 by Kronshtadt. The Kronshtadt Group was a major exhibitor at the 2021 Dubai Airshow. In 2022 the Group was sanctioned by the United Kingdom as part of a package of sanctions targeting participants in the war with Ukraine.

Beriev A-50
The Beriev A-50 (NATO reporting name: Mainstay) is a Soviet-origin airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) aircraft that is based on the Ilyushin Il-76 transport plane. Developed to replace the Tupolev Tu-126 "Moss", the A-50 first flew in 1978. Its existence was revealed to the Western Bloc in 1978 by Adolf Tolkachev. It entered service in 1985, with about 42 produced by 1992 when the breakup of the Soviet Union ended production.

Airborne Early Warning And Control
An airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) system is an airborne radar early warning system designed to detect aircraft, ships, vehicles, missiles and other incoming projectiles at long ranges, as well as performing command and control of the battlespace in aerial warfare, aerial engagements by informing and directing friendly fighter aircraft, fighter and attack aircraft. AEW&C units are also used to carry out aerial surveillance airborne ground surveillance, over ground and maritime surveillance, maritime targets, and frequently perform battle management command and control (BMC2). When used at altitude, the radar system on AEW&C aircraft allows the operators to detect, track and prioritize targets and identify friendly aircraft from hostile ones in real-time and from much farther away than ground-based radars. Like ground-based radars, AEW&C systems can be detected and targeted by opposing forces, but due to aircraft mobility and extended sensor range, they are much less vul ...
