Abstract:
A device for launching unmanned missiles from an aircraft with a pallet, on which at least one container is provided to receive a missile. The container has an upper container section that has a pylon for the suspended, detachable support of the missile. The container has a lower container section that is embodied as a support area for the missile.

Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses and methods for landing an unmanned aircraft on a mobile structure are presented. Sensors on the aircraft identify a predetermined landing area on a mobile structure. The aircraft monitors the sensor data to maintain its position hovering over the landing area. The aircraft estimates a future attitude of the surface of the landing area and determines a landing time that corresponds to a desired attitude of the surface of the landing area. The unmanned aircraft executes a landing maneuver to bring the aircraft into contact with the surface of the landing area at the determined landing time.
Abstract:
Ein bekannter Schleppkörper ist in allen drei Raumrichtungen manövrierbar, verfügt aber als reines Luftziel nicht über eine große Lastkapazität. Der erfindungsgemäße Schleppkörper (01) ist für eine große Lastaufnahme konzipiert und dient ausschließlich wissenschaftlichen und kommerziellen Messzwecken. Für sehr gute aerodynamische Eigenschaften weist er einen Rumpf (02) mit einer dreieckigen Querebene (15) auf, wobei die Oberseite (18) breit und die Unterseite (19) schmal ausgebildet ist, und mit einer Wölbung (23) nur an der Oberseite (18), wohingegen seine Unterseite (19) gerade verläuft. Die Tragflächen (03) sind abgeknickt und bestehen aus zwei Segmenten (07, 08). Kleine Segmente (07) sind unten am Rumpf (02) angeordnet, zeigen nach unten und stabilisieren den Schleppkörper (01), große Segmente (08) schließen an die kleinen Segmente (07) an, weisen nach oben und erzeugen Auftrieb. Im vorderen und mittleren Bereich des Rumpfs (02) und in den kleinen Segmenten (07) befinden sich Lastkammern (10, 11), die anwenderfreundliche Segmentkammern (22) aufweisen können. Der Aggregatraum (09) mit verschiedenen Aggregaten (27), wie lagestabilisierendem Kreiselsystem und Antikollisionsmodul, Akkumulatoren, Generator sowie einem Rettungsfallschirmsystem (25) befindet sich im hinteren Bereich des Schleppkörpers (01).
Abstract:
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system provides for UAV deployment and remote, unattended operation with reduced logistics requirements. The system includes a launcher that can include one or more containers, or hangars, configured to house vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) UAVs. The system can further include a VTOL UAV orientation and charging module configured to mechanically position a UAV within a container and facilitate electrical mating and charging of a battery in the UAV. These operations, and others, can be performed by remote command that can initiate a series of pre-programmed steps. The UAV system can further include a power generation and storage subsystem, a security subsystem, a command and control subsystem and a communications subsystem. Command, control and communications can be provided between a remote station and the UAV.
Abstract:
A disposable unmanned aerial glider (UAG) with pre-determined UAG flight capabilities. The UAG comprises a flight module comprising at least one aerodynamic arrangement; and a fuselage module comprising a container configured for storing therein a payload and having structural integrity. The container is pressurized so as to maintain structural integrity thereof at least during flight, so that the UAG flight capabilities are provided only when the container is pressurized.
Abstract:
To provide a rescue drone (20), for rescuing an idle drone (21), it consists of an adjustable length hook (22) to engage with the idle drone, to carry it away, an L- shaped metallic tool (27) to push the idle drone away from the middle of the road, or to help in repositioning it to be at a side that permits for the hook (22) to engage with it, an emergency light (SOS) (28), to assist while hovering over the idle drone located in a road, an electric shock stick (29), which is to be used against any person approaching the idle drone to steal it, a speaker (30) and camera (31), to assist a security person in a command center to assess the case, talk with and warn any person who is trying to steal the idle drone, or to advise and guide a volunteer who is trying to help and assist in rescuing the idle drone.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a system for reconnaissance using autonomous unmanned airborne vehicles (UAV). The system comprises a mothership, which is generally a fixed wing fuel tank capable of providing a suitable surface for flight (lift) and one or more elements for attachment of individual UAVs. The system further comprises one or more UAVs that are detachably connected to the mothership, and which are independently controllable for reconnaissance and tracking. The system and its individual parts are reusable and independently controllable, permitting low cost reconnaissance over wide areas of geography.
Abstract:
A system for connecting an all-wing carrier with a parasite flying unit, characterized in that the carrier (1) and the parasite flying unit (2) are connected via energy distribution means (11 a, 21a, 11b, 21b) configured to exchange energy bi-directionally, wherein the system further comprises a controller (41) configured to control the direction of the flow and the amount of said energy.
