Military UAV for Civil use?
UAV´s are well mature for military applications and customers. Platoon
Squadron´s can count on battle proven backpack portable Micro-UAVs,

like the Raven, Dragon Eye and Desert Hawk. Tactical UAV´s, such
Shadow, Pioneer, Hunter, Falco that can carry a broader range of
payloads are mature to fly in segregated airspace, or battle environments.
But, the employment of this tactical UAV for civil applications will not be
possible in a short to mid-term view.
Why?
• A UAV have to assure the same level of security as the most less
advanced ultralight aircraft.
• Price of a tactical UAV is not affordable for civil applications.
• Data-Link frequency and transmission power are not civil approved.

What´s about Micro-UAV for civil application?

A2TECH study the use of Micro-UAV since 2004 and recognized that
standard military UAS are not well useable for the Civil Defence industry.
The main problem are the Civil Defence organisation and the italian
landscape.
Civil Defence is mainly based on a volunteer organisation from all ages.

But, most of them are over 40-50 years old. Using computers and digital
maps could become problematic.
Civil Defence organisations does´t have easy access to digital maps for
mission planning and waypoint setting.
Civil Defence means natural disasters: Usually not announced by nature.

A2TECH approach in using UAV´s

Micro-UAVs for Civil Defence and First Responders need to be useable
every time and in most of the environments and weather situations.
This mean a UAV have to be flown as an aircraft that allow to takeoff
everywhere, to monitor and assess the disaster and to land everywhere
possible in full security, and without any autopilot. It was decided that a
Micro-UAV should takeoff and land inside a football camp. Their are
available everywhere in Italy and most of the time empty.
To accomplish all this points, A2TECH developed back in 2005

RealityVISION - Universal Ground Control Cockpit (UGCC). This UGCC
will allow to any manned aircraft pilots to fly and control a UAV in all his
flight envelopes. We demonstrated this theory on the first RealityVISION
fight test on 20-06-2005 and on many other events and classified flight
tests.
RealityVISION - Universal Ground Control Cockpit first flight test 20-06-05

With RealityVISION and a UAV technology demonstrator in our portfolio,

we was ready to look for an engagement by the local Civil Defence

organisation of Verona. In 2006 we met Prof. Athos Arzenton, professor at
Verona´s high-school ITIS Ferraris, president of Associazione
Radioamatori Italiana (ARI) Verona and coordinator for the robotics
activities. His commitment in the local Civil Defence organisation allows
the use of the Micro-UAV RV-02 at Garda 2006 and Sisma 2007.

From 2005 to 2009 A2TECH partecipated in the following Civil Defence

exercises:

• Garda 2006
• Sisma 2007
• Storm 2008
• Adige 2009
Based on this experience collected in 4 year of Civil Defence cooperation

we found out the limitations of fixed wing UAV´s. Every execise showed
and evidenced its own issues and particularity. Civil Defence operates in
mountains, on lakes, on the sea, on flat landscapes, rivers, hills.
Operational radius will be from local (few km) up to 100´s of km.
The main issue is the transmission of live video to the Emergency
Operation Centers and the coordination of flight operations.
Integrating UAV in the
Civil Defence Organisation
New Questions and Issues...

We demonstrated that using a Ground Control Cockpit will allow any aircraft
pilot to control and fly a UAV without any digital map, computer and
complicated control software. Flying is performed instinctivetely with base
aircraft piloting knowledge. One of the most important point are:
UAV ARE SMALL AIRCRAFTS AND HAVE TO BE TREATED AS
AIRCRAFTS WITH ITS PROCEDURES!
The Question now is: Inside the Civil Defence organisation, who will be the
best target to become a UAV pilots? Of course full scale aircrafts pilots.
Targeting full scale aircraft pilots we will post the base for establishing a Civil
Defence UAV Squadron.
Where catch full scale aircraft pilots?

At the Civil Defence exercise “Sisma 2007” we met Davide Burei,

team leader of the TeamEurostar, an aerobatic team based on
ultralight aircrafts. TeamEurostar helps the local Civil Defence
organisation of Verona with aerial support since back to 1998. The
group was called 1st GrupAer Verona.
First meeting with

Davide Burei of
TeamEurostar (on
RealityVISION)
June 2008: A2TECH, TeamEurostar and the Provincia

di Verona decided to establish the “Reparto Volo

Emergenze - Emergency Flight Department (R.V.E-
E.F.D.)“. This is the first squadron that will employ
manned and unmanned aircrafts on a daily basis!
RVE-EFD: The Door to UAVs
The Emergency Flight Department (EFD) is the first italian voluteer civil
defence organisation offering low-cost airborne services. It has in service

a fleet of ultralight aircrafts, light helicopters and autogyros some equiped
with UAV avionic and payload technology. The EFD was established in
June 2008 with the national and international wide operation in mind.
Most of the EFD pilots are expirienced liner and ex-military pilots flying
ATR, Boeing, Airbus, McDonnel Douglas, Tornado, AMX, F104, MB339,
G91.
Davide Burei, president and co-founder of the EFD is an italian aerobatic

vice-champion on CAP 10. Actually he logs over 12.000 flying hours and
owns PPL pilot licenses for Italy, Germany, Cech Republic and the USA.
Today Davide works as ultralight / LSA aircraft instructor and are a test
pilot for Evektor Aeroteknik.

RVE-EFD: Base Camp
The EFD´s Base Camp is located at sud of Valeggio sul Mincio, close to
the Lake Garda and the city of Verona. The Base Camp acts also as

primary A2TECH´s UAV flying test center. The grass runway measures
300 m in lenght.
ARI - The Radio Communication Backbone

Now we have manned and unmanned aircrafts and pilots that can send
aerial images and video streams. But... Where?
The Civil Defence organisation operates and coordinate all activities and
tasks from the Emergency Operation Center (EOC), called in italian the
Sala Operazioni Unificate Permanenti (S.O.U.P.) o Mobile (S.O.U.M.) and
Direzione Di Comando e Controllo (DI.COMA.C.). This means that all images
and video streams have to be sendet to the EOC.
The Associazione Radioamatori Italiana (ARI) is the backbone for all Civil
Defence communications and can operate from VHF to 10GHz frequency
bands. But... an old italian law prohibits the use of any ARI frequency to be
operated from an aerial platform! If we will operate on a legal aspect, we
need to find a new way.
EITS - Emergency Image Transfer System

The EITS - Emergency Image Transfer System was developed by A2TECH to
create a private plug & play network for transfering georeferenced emergency
pictures and video streams in real-time, with Instant Messaging, Email, Chat and
VoIP capability. The images and data are sendet to the Emergency Operation
Center over LOS (Line of Sight) and BLOS (Beyond Line of Sight). Usually the
EOC is based at city centers at the Prefettura or at the Sala Controllo Regionale.
The requirement for aerial long rang transmissions will be covered by the
GPRS/UMTS/LTE and Satellite technologies. The short range transfering will be
covered by IP-encoded OFDM wireless video (Wi-Fi, WiMAX, LanCast, DVB).
NOTE: Parapublic istitutions, such Polizia di Stato, Carabinieri, Guardia di
Finanza, Guardia Forestale, Guardia Costiera, Capitaneria di Porto, etc. have less
restrictions in using frequency and powers. The Civil Defence NEED to operate on
specific frequencies and powers (ARI). THIS IS A HUGE RESTRICTION FOR
UAV applications.

Government Bureaucracy and Limitations

After finding the way of who could operate the UAV, after the establishing of the
volunteer organisation “Emergency Flight Department”, after to discovered where
the images, video streams and data have to be send, now we have to integrate all
this into the Civil Defence organisation. A NIGHTMARE!
Bureaucracy and restrictions will get you crazy. Without political sustain and
pressures of people that belive in this project you will lose the task of getting a
official regional volunteer organization.
You need to close a “Master Operational Agreement“ (Convenzione-Quadro) that

define the partnership between the Regione Veneto and the Emergency Flight
Department. After this you need to set up an “Operation Protocol” that define the
operational procedures of the Emergency Flight Department. Defined all this it is
time to inform all “Chief of Provincia” (Regione Veneto is build on 7 Provincie) that
is the “Prefetto” (government representative), and the heads of the Civil Defence
(Assessore provinciale)
Government Bureaucracy and Limitations

Just to give you some numbers:
• Italy have 20 Regioni

• Each Regione is composed by Provincie: 107 in Total
This means that a total of 107 Prefetti and 107 Assessori Provinciali have to be
informed about the availability and the Operating Protocol of the Emergency Flight
Department and its capability of manned and unmanned services.
But... today the Emergency Flight Department is ONLY Regione Veneto. We need
to copy the procedures 20 times.
Become a member of the Dipartimento Nazionale di Protezione Civile (FEMA in

the US) would be the best way. To achiev this you need to be present on
exhibitions and to meet the right peoples of the Dipartimento that agree on the
project. Not an easy task... but we are on this task now ;-)

Do you think it is a easy job to get out of the italian
bureaucracy?
Mmmm... NO!

Fundings, Sponsorships, Expenses

Today the Emergency Flight Department does´t got a single Euro for equipment
used. Just some expenses for gas and exhibition contribution was payed. All the
equipment is private owned and financed by TeamEurostar and A2TECH.
No fundings or sponsorships from 2006-2009 by government, banks, industrials,
regione or schools helped the R&D in the unmanned niche and for the
establishment of the Emergency Flight Department.
• TeamEurostar collect some money with performing aerobatic aershows.
• A2TECH is a 100% self financing private company.
THIS IS THE MAIN PROBLEM IN ITALY
COST OF EQUIPMENT IS POINT NUMBER ONE
TeamEurostar, now the aerobatic team of the Emergency Flight Department

Cost Comparisions
Cost of UAV is important - Operating UAVs is not a game or fun

Operating the unmanned RV-02 and the manned ULM Evektor EuroStar we had
the chance to gather experience on where UAVs could be used in a real Civil
Defence scenario.
Using low-cost manned aircrafts (80-150 E/h) we performed all the UAV payload
sensors, avionic, data and video-link quality, reliability and distance tests. We
know how far we can get with Micro-UAV and we came to the conclusion: Micro-
UAV are not well suited for Civile Defence applications.
Main issues will be takeoff and landing, to cover distances, ground antenna
positions, obstacles such threes, buildings, hills, etc. The price/performance ratio
of a Micro-UAV, like Dragon Eye, Raven or Desert Hawk is not convinient for the
Civil Defence organisations. Also, a flying fixed-wing UAV need to be cleared by
ENAC and ATC. Collisions with other ULM / LSA or helicopters can occur.
Are UAV not useable for the Civil Defence? Why I should use a UAV?
Cost Comparisions

Manned engineed Delta: Shadow RQ-7B UAV:
- Cost: E 17.000 - 50.000 - Cost: $ 350.000 - System cost: $ 10 million

Cost Comparisions
Manned light aircraft cost comparsion:

• Fixed Wing Evektor EuroStar ULM: E 70K
• Fixed Wing Evektor SportStar LSA: E 100K
• Autogyro Brako Gyro: E 40K

• Engineed Delta DTA Combo FC 912S: E 50K
• Rotary Wing Robinson R22: E 250K

• Rotary Wing Eurocopter Ecureuil AS350 B3: 1.6-2M
Cost Comparisions

Question: Why I should buy a UAV for Civil
Defence Applications, if manned light aircrafts
cost less and can be operated everywhere and
anywhere?
Which UAV for CD?
Which UAV could be used for Civil Defence application?

Operating manned ULM aircrafts for disaster assessments, mid to long range and
endurance missions, like dozens to hundred of km and hours of requested flight
time is the best price/performance ratio. A UAV class imaging payload and avionic
equipped Evektor will cost around E 150K, with an endurance of 5-6 hours and a
range of hundred of km.
Monitoring and assess local point and places, will become trivial using manned
fixed-wing aircrafts because you have to fly circles over the point of interest at
altitudes between 100-250m.
This is a job for a rotary-wing aircraft.
Which UAV for CD?
Rotary-Wing Platforms: The perfect fusion with manned aircrafts

Manned rotary-wing aircrafts are too expensive for just image capturing. You have
to takeoff from a remote point, fuel consumption is high and endurance is low.
Helicopters will be used by the Emergency Flight Department for moving people,
material, SAR, first aids, etc.
UAV rotary-wing are the perfect companion for the ground troops. It can be carried
by a off-road vehicle everywhere and with any weather situations, have an
endurance of 1-2 hours, mission range of up to 5 km, lift its own empty weight,
provide static images of the point of interest from all desired angles, carry a broad
range of payload sensors, and to be easy to operate. Integration to ATC and
clearence from ENAC is more easy.
A2TECH works on helicopters since 2007 and after two years of R&D we belive
this is the right cost effective UAV platform for the Civil Defence organisation and
parapublic istitutions.

Conclusion
Fusion between low-cost manned and unmanned platforms

A2TECH and the Civil Defence organisation came to the conclusion that the best
way of aerial support will be the fusion of manned and unmanned aircrafts.
• Manned fixed-wing aircrafts: mid to long-range monitoring and assessment

missions.
• Manned rotary-wing aircrafts: logistic missions, moving people, moving material,

delivering first aids, Search & Rescue, fire fighting, aerial work.
• Unmanned rotary-wing aircrafts: short-range point of interest monitoring and

assessment.
The important point will be the perfect integration with flight operation, ATC, ENAC
and the Civil Defence workflow.
Conclusion
We are on the start line on employing UAV in the Civil Defence organisation and
we have to analyze some more issues:

• DO-178B & DO-254 Certifications
• EASA Type Certifications
• Part 145 Maintenance and Minor Changes
• Specific Reserved Frequencies for Video and Data-Links
• Public Opinion & Political Impact
• Assurance: Who will Assure a UAV?
Rotary-wing UAVs will provide the base on this fantastic and fascinating
technology. We at A2TECH and Emergency Flight Department hope to
find new supporter that will allow the further development of this technolgy
and to become UAV´s a standard in the Civil Defence operations.
Lets save live using UAV´s!
