The role and place of swarms of unmanned systems in operations (combat operations) and options for their use
Abstract
Purpose: Determine the role, place, tasks of swarms of unmanned systems in operations (combat operations) and options for their application
Method: methods of analysis and synthesis, methods of induction and deduction, methods of expert survey, methods of operations research.
Practical implications: the key components of swarms of unmanned systems are given; the main tasks and the place of swarms of unmanned systems in operations (combat actions) are determined; rational options for the use of swarms of unmanned systems in operations (combat actions) are given; separate recommendations for the use of swarms of unmanned systems are considered.
Theoretical implications: the role, place and tasks of swarms of unmanned systems as new elements of modern warfare are defined. Rational options for use in operations (combat actions) are given, taking into account the experience of repelling large-scale armed aggression of the russian federation.
