It begins by providing background on the history of drone use, noting they were originally developed for military purposes but are now being used for law enforcement which raises ethical questions. It discusses how states have enacted laws regarding drone use by law enforcement but these laws were largely reactions to public perceptions without substantive consideration of the issues. The document examines the capabilities of new drone technology and how this will impact their military and law enforcement applications into the future.
Military and law enforcement applications of UAVs have been placed u.pdfakashganga11
Military and law enforcement applications of UAVs have been placed under a higher level of
scrutiny due to issues associated with privacy and engagement. However, NASA has been
operating UAVs and unmanned space systems for decades without the same degree of public
perception issues. How do unmanned aircraft robotic systems (i.e., MQ-9 Reaper) differ from
civilian unmanned space systems (e.g., NASA Curiosity Rover)? Consider their similarities
regarding mission performance, functionality, design, and support
Solution
Military
As of January 2014, the U.S. military operated 7,362 RQ-11B Ravens; 145 AeroVironment RQ-
12A Wasps; 1,137AeroVironment RQ-20A Pumas; 306 RQ-16 T-Hawk small UAS; 246
Predators and MQ-1C Grey Eagles; 126 MQ-9 Reapers; 491 RQ-7 Shadows and 33 RQ-4 Global
Hawk large systems.
Reconnaissance
The Tu-141 \"Swift\" reusable Soviet reconnaissance drone is intended for reconnaissance to a
depth of several hundred kilometers from the front line at supersonic speeds.[91] The Tu-123
\"Hawk\" is a supersonic long-range reconnaissance drone (UAV) intended for conducting
photographic and signals intelligence to a distance of 3200 km; it was produced beginning in
1964.[92] The La-17P (UAV) is a reconnaissance UAV produced since 1963.[93] In 1945 the
Soviet Union began producing \"doodlebug\".[94] 43 Soviet/Russian UAV models are
known.[95]
In 2013, the U.S. Navy launched a UAV from a submerged submarine, the first step to
\"providing mission intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities to the U.S. Navy\'s
submarine force.\"[96]
Attack
MQ-1 Predator UAVs armed with Hellfire missiles have been used by the U.S. as platforms for
hitting ground targets. Armed Predators were first used in late 2001, mostly aimed at
assassinating high-profile individuals (terrorist leaders, etc.) inside Afghanistan. UAVs avoid
potential diplomatic embarrassment when a manned aircraft is shot down and the pilots captured.
Defense against UAVs
The US armed forces have no defense against low-level drone attack, but the Joint Integrated Air
and Missile Defense Organization is working to repurpose existing systems. Two German
companies are developing 40-kW lasers to damage UAVs. Three British companies jointly
developed a system to track and disrupt UAV control mechanisms. Other systems still include
the OpenWorks Engineering Skywall and the Battelle DroneDefender.
Targets for military training
Since 1997, the US military has used more than 80 F-4 Phantoms converted into UAVs as aerial
targets for combat training of human pilots. The F-4s were supplemented in September 2013
with F-16s as more realistically maneuverable targets.
Civil
Civil uses include aerial crop surveys, aerial photograpy, search and rescue, inspection of power
lines and pipelines, counting wildlife delivering medical supplies to otherwise inaccessible
regions, and detection of illegal hunting, reconnaissance operations, cooperative environment
monitoring, border patrol missions, conv.
Drones are unmanned aerial vehicles that can be remotely controlled or fly autonomously using sensors and GPS. Originally developed for military use, drones are now used widely for applications like search and rescue, surveillance, agriculture, and delivery services. The history of drone technology spans over a century from their first use as targets in World War I to widespread adoption today in both military and commercial applications such as disaster relief, photography, and taxi services.
The document discusses the evolution of geospatial technologies and their applications in military and defense. It covers early developments like aerial photography in WWI and radar development during WWII. It then discusses later technologies like satellites, GPS, GIS, and their increasing use in defense for tasks like reconnaissance, surveillance, navigation, and geospatial intelligence analysis. The document emphasizes how military needs have often driven advances in these technologies.
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, are increasingly being used for military purposes like surveillance and targeted killings. As drone technology advances, it allows militaries to conduct operations from long distances with fewer risks to human pilots. However, drones also raise legal and ethical issues around targeted killings and how to program drones' systems to distinguish combatants from civilians. As drone use expands, regulators will need to address air traffic control and develop legal frameworks regarding their approved uses and limitations.
The document discusses drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles. It defines drones as aircraft that are piloted remotely rather than having a human pilot onboard. The International Civil Aviation Organization classifies drones into two types: autonomous aircraft and remotely piloted aircraft. Drones are used for both military and civilian purposes, such as policing, firefighting, pipeline and power line inspection, aerial surveillance, filmmaking, search and rescue, and scientific research. The history of drones began in the 1800s and their use and development increased during World War I. Bangladesh's first drone was created in 1992 by a BUET student as a personal project. Drones are now being developed further in Bangladesh.

The document discusses the history of official U.S. military investigations into UFOs, known as Project Sign and Project Grudge. It describes some notable UFO sightings in 1947 that prompted the creation of Project Sign. Project Sign studied UFO reports and determined that some objects might be under intelligent control and of extraterrestrial origin. The document also briefly mentions a related secret program called Project Paperclip involving German scientists after World War II.
Google has acquired Titan Aerospace, a startup company that develops high-altitude, long-endurance solar-powered drones. Titan builds drones such as the Solera 50, which has a 164-foot wingspan and was being courted by Facebook as well. Google plans to use Titan's drones to help expand internet access to more of the world as part of its Project Loon initiative, which aims to provide internet to rural and remote areas using a network of balloons traveling at the edge of space. Drones were invented in the early 20th century and have since been developed by both military and commercial entities, with the drone market expected to be worth $94 billion over the next decade.
UAVs offer several advantages over manned aircraft including lower costs, better endurance allowing for longer flight times, and eliminating risk to human lives. Drones like the Predator and Reaper cost a fraction of the amount of manned jets like the F-16, and their fuel efficiency allows them to remain airborne for over 24 hours performing surveillance. Drone pilots can identify targets precisely using cameras and strike with minimal risk of loss compared to manned aircraft where crashes result in higher monetary losses and human casualties. Drones' endurance also enables continuous hours of unbroken surveillance over remote areas to support missions like French intervention in Mali against Al-Qaeda affiliates.
The document discusses the evolution and increasing use of helicopters in warfare from World War II through modern times. It notes that helicopters saw limited early use but became more prominent in the Korean and Vietnam Wars, where the U.S. used them to rapidly deploy and extract troops. Helicopters also took on new roles like medical evacuations and gunship support. Their tactical value was further proven in conflicts like the Gulf War. While helicopters still have limitations compared to fixed-wing aircraft, ongoing innovations continue to broaden their military applications.
The unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) market is expected to be worth $91 billion over the next decade, with most growth coming from industrial and consumer markets. The document discusses the growth opportunity in drones, the largest manufacturers, and provides forecasts for the overall market size from various analysts. Venture capital funding in drone startups is increasing and supporting continued growth in the industry beyond the already large military market.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. The U.S. military has been, and remains, a world leader in
remote targeted killings. The drone has become central to
U.S. National Security Strategy.
They provide war managers with intelligence, surveillance,
and reconnaissance (ISR), irrespective of their size.
The U.S. military’s fleet of drones varies by size, shape, and
sophistication, from the army’s hand-thrown Ravens to the
air force’s Global Hawk, which can reach altitudes of sixty
thousand feet. The drone funding stood at around $284
million in the year 2000.
3. The Pentagon planned to spend close to $3 billion
on drones by the year 2016. Indeed, the Pentagon’s
inventory of drones increased forty-fold between the
years 2002 and 2010.
It owns a fleet of around eleven thousand drones
today, hundreds of which are weaponized.
4. Drones have been used for decades
in various forms.
One of the first recorded uses was
by Austrians in July 1849 after they
launched around two hundred
pilotless balloons mounted with
bombs against the city of Venice.
Samuel P. Langley developed a
range of steam-powered aerodromes
i.e. unpiloted aircraft that were flown
successfully along the Potomac
River near Washington, D.C.
5. The ninety-second flights gave a
glimpse of the future in the hovering
aerodrome.
The practice of aerial surveillance
later emerged in the 1898 Spanish–
American War when the U.S.
military used a camera fitted to a kite
to produce the first aerial
reconnaissance photographs.
Aerial surveillance was used
extensively in the World War I.
6. The evolution of U.S. Drones can be
understood as the passage of five
overlapping phases.
Phase 1: The Target Drone
Phase 2: The Flying Bomb
Phase 3: The Surveillance Drone
Phase 4: The Hunter-Killer Drone
Phase 5: The Police Drone
7. The drone was used as a practice
target for military forces in the
early twentieth century.
Developed in UK and US
military shooting ranges, it was
of use by the U.S. Army. Some
iconic drones were hewitt-sperry
automatic airplane and kettering
torpedo.
8. In the interwar period and into
world war II, the drone was
imagined as a kind of flying bomb
to deliver ordinance across the
enemy line. They were trialed
across the english channel and
used by the U.S air force to cross
the battlefield and bomb the nation
state. Some iconic drones were
glide bomb and modified B-17
bomber (aphrodite).
9. During the cold war, particularly
after the Cuban missile crisis, the
drone was seen as a viable
surveillance platform able to
capture intelligence in denied areas.
Under the institutions of U.S. Air
force and strategic command, drones
were used across north Vietnam,
Cuba, and china for the surveillance
of the battleship and to capture
photos i.e. to photograph denied or
dangerous areas. Various Firebee
drones, also known as lightning
bugs, are the iconic drones of this
phase.
10. Post-September 11, 2001, U.S.
Air force, CIA, and JSOC used
drones in a military manhunt
during the war on terror in
Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen,
and Somalia. The drone has been
weaponized, fusing surveillance
and killing, therefore becoming a
combined hunter–killer, or a
predator. Iconic drones of this
phase are the predator, the reaper
drone, and the raven.
11. The fifth stage sees the drone
refashioned as a policing technology
in domestic law enforcement.
Drones are being used by the police
forces in the U.S. And customs and
border patrol in the cities in the
global north, used by hobbyists and
criminals, to swarm the street and
protect the VIP buildings. Various
quadcopter drones are being used in
this phase.
12. Drone advancement is allied to the
relationship between law and technology.
It is involved in the production of
geographic knowledge and surveillance,
target acquisition, and wider economies of
life and death.
14. These are 200 ft. long tethered
fabric balloons filled with
helium that float 15000 ft. in the
air from a single cable. They can
lift weight up to 1200 pounds,
including a camera that pans 360
degrees for constant real-time
surveillance. Their virtue is that
they can stay aloft for months at
a time, carrying a heavy load of
intelligence equipment. Their
shortcoming is that they cannot
be moved rapidly for new
assignments.
15. The 36 ft. long reaper, also
called the “Hunter-Killer”
aircraft is the largest armed
drone. It can detect humans
and can fire hellfire air-to-
surface missiles. It could
soon replace the better-
known drone predator. It
has a 66 ft. long wingspan.
16. It is a 27 ft. long drone with
a 55 ft. long wingspan. It is
the Cessna-size workhorse
that has dominated remotely
piloted flight since the
September 11, 2001, attacks.
The pentagon has 169
predators in its inventory.
17. It is the navy’s prototype combat
drone, and the first combat
drone to take off from an
aircraft carrier and land on it. It
is 38 ft. long and has a 62 ft.
long wingspan. It took its first
successful test flight (of 29
minutes) on February 7, 2011.
18. The 44 ft. long UAV, having a wingspan of
length 116 ft., is the largest flying drone. It is
sometimes described as the “Flying Albino
Whale”. Although linked to humans on the
ground, global hawks fly mostly on their own,
guided by GPS co-ordinates they download
from the satellite. They were deployed to
Afghanistan in 2001, providing commanders
with battlefield images. The global hawk flies
higher than the predator and can stay up longer
– for almost two days.
19. The Government of Canada wants to
buy at least three high-altitude UAVs
for Arctic surveillance.
Government agencies want to use
drones for disaster relief, border
surveillance and wildfire fighting.
The private companies are planning to
use drones for a wide variety of tasks,
such as inspecting pipelines and
spraying pesticides on farms.
Recreational drones became popular in
the United States in 2015, with a sale
approximation of one million by the end
of the year.
20. It is predicted by the U.S. Aviation
Officials that there will be 7 million
drones in the sky by the year 2020,
2.7 million of which will be used for
commercial purposes.
Drones are expected to be the most
dynamic growth sector within
aviation in a few years.
The biggest commercial users of
drones would be the real estate,
agriculture, and insurance industries.
21. The president-elect is in favor of
resuming law enforcement access to
military equipment.
The domestic drone industry shall see a
rise in the number of government clients
for drones and its interference technology.
It seems like yesterday the drone industry
was hovering on the horizon, waiting to
realize its immense potential.
However, drones won renewed attention
from investors and manufacturers in the
year 2016 for their innovative solutions in
an array of commercial applications.
22. The greatest impact of drones will be felt in
the future. Drones in the sky, drones in the
sea, drones on land – the future of human
augmentation lies within.
