The Concept and Preliminary Design of a New Drone Destined for Military Rescue/Medical Missions

Abstract

The most notable machines that currently have the impact of eliminating humans from direct contact with the enemy are various types of remotely controlled or autonomous drones. They wreak havoc and fear in the enemy camp, significantly affecting the outcome of current conflicts. The fact of increasing the advantage in the attack causes the need for adequate defense or rescue measures. Thus, the use of remote-controlled drones for rescue/medical purposes seems a natural or even necessary path for the development of military technology. The described drone is intended to be unmanned, designed to transport only one injured person to be evacuated from an area of intense combat with the usage of an onboard robot. It is intended that the drone will be electrically powered which will reduce the possibility of detection due to acoustic and heat signature.
