Abstract :
Recognition from the air is the fastest and most effective way of obtaining information about the enemy. Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) allow transferring information directly to soldiers operating in the field of combat. For platoon, image from the camera located in the air, which is able to look at the line of contact, gives a great sense of superiority and increase the pace of operations. The idea of Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) assumes the use of easy to transport and is simple to use observation devices in the short and real time from the decision on their application, which can provide visual material of the object or an object located at a distance of a few hundred to a few kilometers from the launch site. The subject of research is the development of construction, engineering, construction and equipment, real fully functional reconnaissance vertical takeoff and landing UAV prototype on a tactical level.
