| Abstract | Uncrewed air vehicles (UAVs) are seen by many countries as a cost effective contribution to defense capabilities, particularly for long and short-range reconnaissance, communications links and for the attack of high threat targets. While TTCP member nations are collaborating on operational and sensor issues with these vehicles, there is an opportunity to evaluate propulsion requirements for a new generation of vehicles. UAV-unique propulsion system concerns are discussed based on a review on activities and initiatives among the TTCP member nations. Recommendations are made for priorities in collaborative activities for current or evolving technology. |
