North Atlantic Treaty Organization - METU

NATO’S RESEARCH & TECHNOLOGY ORGANIZATION (RTO)
RTO is the single focus in NATO for Defence Research and Technology activities. Its mission
is to conduct and promote cooperative research and information exchange. The objective is to
support the development and effective use of national defence research and technology and to
meet the military needs of the Alliance, to maintain a technological lead, and to provide advice
to NATO and national decision makers. The RTO performs its mission with the support of an
extensive network of national experts. It also ensures effective coordination with other NATO
bodies involved in R&T activities.
RTO reports both to the Military Committee of NATO and to the Conference of National
Armament Directors. It comprises a Research and Technology Board (RTB) as the highest
level of national representation and the Research and Technology Agency (RTA), a dedicated
staff with its headquarters in Neuilly, near Paris, France. In order to facilitate contacts with the
military users and other NATO activities, a small part of the RTA staff is located in NATO
Headquarters in Brussels. The Brussels staff also coordinates RTO’s cooperation with
Partnership for Peace nations, to which RTO attaches particular importance especially as
working together in the field of research is one of the more promising areas of initial
cooperation.
The total spectrum of R&T activities is covered by the following 7 bodies:
SAS: Studies, Analysis and Simulation Panel
IST: Information Systems Technology Panel
SCI: Systems Concepts and Integration Panel
AVT: Applied Vehicle Technology Panel
SET: Sensors and Electronics Technology Panel
HFM: Human Factors and Medicine Panel
NMSG: NATO Modeling and Simulation Group
These bodies are made up of national representatives as well as generally recognised ‘world
class’ scientists. They also provide a communication link to military users and other NATO
bodies. RTO’s scientific and technological work is carried out by Technical Teams, created for
specific activities and with a specific duration. Such Technical Teams can organise workshops,
symposia, field trials, lecture series and training courses. An important function of these
Technical Teams is to ensure the continuity of the expert networks.
RTO builds upon earlier cooperation in defence research and technology as set-up under the
Advisory Group for Aerospace Research and Development (AGARD) and the Defence
Research Group (DRG). AGARD and the DRG share common roots in that they were both
established at the initiative of Dr Theodore von Kármán, a leading aerospace scientist, who
early on recognised the importance of scientific support for the Allied Armed Forces. RTO is
capitalising on these common roots in order to provide the Alliance and the NATO nations
with a strong scientific and technological basis that will guarantee a solid base for the future.
The mission of the Systems, Concepts and Integration (SCI) Panel is to advance knowledge
concerning advanced system concepts, integration, engineering techniques and technologies
across the spectrum of platforms and operating environments to assure cost-effective mission
area capabilities. Integrated defence systems, including air, land, sea, and space systems
(manned and unmanned), and associated weapon and countermeasure integration are covered.
Panel activities focus on NATO and national mid- to long-term system level operational needs.
Scope
The scope of Panel activities covers a multidisciplinary range of theoretical concepts, design,
development and evaluation methods applied to integrated defence systems. Areas of interest
include: Integrated mission systems, including weapons and countermeasures
- System architecture/mechanization
- Vehicle integration
- System engineering technologies and testing
- Mission management

THEME
APPLICATIONS, CONCEPTS AND TECHNOLOGIES FOR FUTURE TACTICAL UAVS
Development and application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) is rapidly expanding
as a result of evolving needs for more affordable and survivable systems. Past interest
was primarily focused on reconnaissance and surveillance missions. Findings from the
Aerospace 2020 technology assessment study point toward continued aggressive
development and exploitation of tactical UAVs, enabling revolutionary new capabilities in
the future. In a recently completed SCI Task Group, Integrated Mission System Concepts
and Technologies for UAVs were addressed. Incorporating the findings of this task group,
the Lecture Series is a powerful means to support collective NATO UAV activities.
The Lecture Series is intended to facilitate development and evaluation of meaningful
UAV system design (not the air vehicle itself), application criteria and to provide guidance
regarding future directions in tactical UAV system architectures, mechanization, and
technologies to enhance overall force structure affordability. Emerging technologies and
future systems concepts in concert with the existing experience base are presented.
Pertinent system design considerations, trade-offs and alternatives for exploiting the full
potential of UAVs will be addressed.
Topics:
• Missions, applications and fundamental concepts of operations, critical application
issues, experience base assessment.
• Integrated Missions Systems design concepts/alternatives, functional partitioning
considerations, effectiveness criteria, “system of system” perspective.
• Key enabling technologies
Sensors, situation awareness, communication, and autonomous operation.
• System architecture and mechanization
System-wide integrity, information warfare, etc.
• Engineering of UAV systems
Development, test, evaluation, verification, validation and training, tools.
• Future Research and Development focus.

THÈME
APPLICATIONS, CONCEPTS ET TECHNOLOGIES POUR UAV TACTIQUES FUTURS
Le développement et la mise en œuvre des véhicules sans pilote (UAV) est en plein essor
en raison des besoins croissants en matière de systèmes récupérables à prix abordables.
Dans le passé, les missions de reconnaissance et de surveillance constituaient les
principaux centres d'intérêt. Les conclusions de l'étude d'évaluation technologique
"Aéronautique et espace à l'horizon 2020" laissaient prévoir que les UAV tactiques,
allaient faire l'objet d'un développement et d'une exploitation très soutenus et étaient
susceptibles de déboucher sur de nouvelles capacités révolutionnaires. Dans l'étude que le
groupe de travail SCI-023 vient de terminer, le sujet de "Concepts et technologies de
systèmes de mission intégrés pour UAV" a été traité et ce cycle de conférences, qui
s'appuie sur ces conclusions va contribuer d'une manière efficace aux activités UAV de
l'OTAN.
Son objectif est de faciliter le développement et l'évaluation de critères de conception et
d'application de systèmes UAV (critères relatifs au système et non pas au véhicule luimême), ainsi que de fournir des directives concernant les futures orientations en matière
d'architectures de systèmes tactiques UAV, de mécanisation et de technologies, ceci afin
de rendre plus abordable la structure globale des forces. Les technologies émergentes
ainsi que les futurs concepts de systèmes seront présentés, en cohérence avec les
expériences acquises en la matière. Il sera fait état également de considérations
appropriées concernant la conception des systèmes ainsi que les compromis et les options
permettant d'exploiter au maximum les possibilités des UAVs.
Sujets :
• Missions, applications et concepts fondamentaux d'opérations, questions essentielles
d'application, évaluation de l'expérience acquise.
• Concepts/options de conception de systèmes de mission intégrés, considérations
d'attribution de fonctions, critères d'efficacité, perspectives "système de systèmes".
• Technologies habilitantes clés
Capteurs, connaissance de la situation, communication, opération autonome.
• Architectures systèmes et mécanisation
Intégrité à l'échelle du système, guerre de l'information, etc…
• Ingeniérie des systèmes UAV
Développement, essais, vérification, validation et formation, outils.
• Futurs sujets de recherche et développement.
