From many past years, Stealth Technology has became very effective approach for aircraft to hide it from radar system. Especially for military operations, "Low Observable" technology is best these days. These days all countries are using "Low Observable" principles and techniques for making their aircraft, also the many countries are upgrading their old generation aircraft by making modification to hide from radar system. However, Low observable means not completely invisible but complete disappearance from radar system. Stealth technology have many advantages but besides advantages it has also some disadvantages like its development cost, flyaway cost and maintenance cost are much higher than normal aircraft. Due to capabilities of Stealth technology many countries have been developing anti stealth technology 2 These days United States of America taking advantage of stealth technology. This paper will begin by a brief history of development of stealth aircraft and short introduction of most popular stealth fighter aircrafts 2 .

NDT Trends: Uncovering the Untold Narrative of Titan SubmersibleManaswiMumbarkar
We bring you the captivating cover story covering the Titan Submersible Fiasco.
However, as we unveil the details of the Titan Submersible's tragic journey, we
must also reflect on the lessons learned and the implications for future sub-sea
expeditions.
: The main objective of this paper is the systematic description of the current research and
development of small or miniature unmanned aerial vehicles and micro aerial vehicles, with a focus on
rotary wing vehicles. In recent times, unmanned/Micro aerial vehicles have been operated across the
world; they have also been the subject of considerable research. In particular, UAVs/MAVs with rotary
wings have been expected to perform various tasks such as monitoring at fixed points and surveillance
from the sky since they can perform not only perform static flights by hovering but also achieve vertical
takeoffs and landing. Helicopters have been used for personnel transport, carrying goods, spreading
information, and performing monitoring duties for long periods. A manned helicopter has to be used for
all these duties. On the other hand, unmanned helicopters that can be operated by radio control have
been developed as a hobby. Since unmanned helicopters are often superior to manned helicopters in
terms of cost and safety, in recent years, accomplishing tasks using unmanned helicopters has become
popular. Considerable expertise is required to operate unmanned helicopters by radio control, and
hence, vast labor resources are employed to train operators. Moreover, it is impossible to operate
unmanned helicopters outside visual areas because of lack of radio control, and the working area is
hence limited remarkably. For solving the above problems, it is necessary to realize autonomous
control of unmanned helicopters. However, no general method for designing the small unmanned
helicopters has been developed yet – today, various design techniques by different study groups using
different helicopters exist. In this paper the conceptual design process is explained.

The Application of Unmanned Marine Vehicles to Maritime Rescue - John DalzielVR Marine Technologies
The technology supporting Unmanned Vehicles - land, sea and air - is rapidly improving. Unmanned vehicles are making large inroads into Search and Rescue (SAR) response. In the near future, Unmanned Marine Vehicles (UMVs) will likely play a role in Maritime SAR response. Do UMVs have a potential role in Maritime SAR Systems, and if so, what roles could they fulfil?

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

SCENARIO (1)
• Work with a 15 – 20m SAR Lifeboat
• Search for missing person(s) (hopefully with flotation and
thermal protection to give reasonable survival time).
• The Unmanned Marine Vehicle (UMV) would be employed
to increase the breadth of the Search Track – thereby
reducing search time for a given area.
• UMV could also search in areas of navigational hazards
which may not safely accessible by the SAR Lifeboat – near
shore, surf, etc.

IJmuiden,NL; March 28, 2017.
Scenario (2)
• Search may have restricted visibility conditions. – UMV can
assist by:
• Use of First Person View (FPV) – viewing directly from the
UMV.
• Use of Night Vision (IR) cameras
• May use aerial device (drone / tethered drone / kite /
balloon / other?) to increase breadth of search.
• Aerial device may have significant wind-speed / flight
duration limitations.

Augmenting the search by a SAR Lifeboat
• Figure 2 shows a UMV increasing the breadth of the search
track by a SAR Lifeboat.
• Figure 3 shows the breadth of the search track being
dramatically increased by the addition of an aerial search
device.
• The breadth of the search track is subject to a variety of
limiting factors, but could generally be further increased by
additional UMV / aerial units.
