Abstract
The paper Aerial target system design for effective air defence training deals with the design and definition of on-board components of Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) used for training ground-based air defence (GBAD) units. The main goal of the paper is to define the essential requirements of UAS to be applicable as an aerial target system (ATS). Fundamental elements and the most common autopilots are described, analysed, and compared. The analysis results are implemented over specific scenarios for GBAD units training in the tactical simulator environment (Re-PLAN). The tactical simulator environment is specifically designed for GBAD capabilities evaluation and includes the various options of scenario settings and verification (e.g. optical visibility evaluation, radar, fire unit effectivity, etc.) The obtained results are summarized and implemented into exercise variants using the target drone and the proposed onboard system, which is suitable for different types of GBAD system principles (visual, IR, radar).
