The methodology for selecting the UAV model according to customer requirements based on the UAS application scenario

The national project “Unmanned Aircraft Systems” is faced with the problem of the gap between the technologies that are planned to be created and the real needs of the industry, that is, the inability to correctly assess the demand and capacity of the UAS market. This problem was noted by a number of experts in the field of UAS development, in particular V. V. Shpak and A. S. Malkov, and was also discussed at the AERONEXT 2024 forum, where the issue of the need to revise the national project taking into account UAS application scenarios was raised. To solve this problem, the article proposes a methodology for selecting a UAV model according to customer requirements based on the UAS application scenario.
