Nano Unmanned Aerial Vehicles - Drone or Helicopter in Military

Abstract

An unmanned Aerial vehicle (UAV) (or un crewed aerial vehicle, commonly known as a Drone) is an aircraft without a human pilot on board and a type of unmanned vehicle. The nano is a military micro unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in use by the armed forces of the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, Norway, the Netherlands and India. The unit measures around 10*2.5 cm (4*1 in) and provides troops on the ground with local situational awareness. They are small enough to fit in one hand and weigh just over half an ounce (16 g, including batteries). The UAV is equipped with triple cameras(one looking forward, one looking straight down, one pointing downward at 45 degrees), which gives the operator full-motion video and still images. An operator can be trained to operate the nano UAV in as little as 20 to 25 minutes. Top speed is 11 mph (18 km/h).
