First person view attack drone training
In this latest Shephard technology report, Giles Ebbutt highlights the rise of the first person view (FPV) drone as a powerful asymmetric weapon that can inflict significant damage at a relatively low cost.
The success of this technology in combat has now inspired the development of a new high-fidelity simulation system to both train operators in the effective use of these UAVs, as well as help armies test tactics, techniques and procedures as they add this capability to their frontline forces.
