Dragonfly Homeland Security
The Dragonfly UMR-1 is a
more cost effective alternative to search areas than today's
conventional manned aircraft. It will be possible to
employ more UAVs in a search than manned vehicles due to
that reduced cost. This in turn increases the size of
the search area, which corresponds to a reduced search
time. Time is the critical element in all search &
rescue operations.
Law enforcement agencies
can save lives and capture high speed pursuit evaders
better when any available, trained officer can operate
the craft to provide airborne guidance to ground
officers or capture the speeder by themselves.
Getting necessary supplies
and equipment to the site of a natural disaster is
important. Unfortunately, because of the disaster
itself, the infrastructure, road and bridges, may be
damaged or destroyed...making disaster relief
impossible. Dragonfly UMR offers an aerial
cargo/personnel platform and provides an alternate route
of travel...which is rarely obstructed. |
