Heute wurde die Internationale Luft- und Raumfahrtausstellung in Berlin Schönefeld eröffnet.Diese findet in diesem Jahr auf dem Gelände des zukünftigen BBI "Willy Brandt" statt.Eröffnet wurde sie durch die Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel,welche noch bevor sie die ILA eröffnete, einem der grössten Waffenproduzenten der Welt,Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm huldigte und zuerst Vertreter dieses Unternehmens begrüsste.Es ist mehr als beeindruckend,das diese Luftfahrtschau nichts anderes ist als eine bessere Waffenmesse ist,auf der alles,was das Herz des Waffenhändlers genauso erfreut,wie das des Diktators.Das muss man ja nu aber nicht so offensichtlich zeigen,indem man zuerst die Waffenlobby begrüsst und anschliessend erst die Messe eröffnet.Und warum auf einer Luuftfahrtmesse auch noch gepanzerte Fahrzeuge von Krauss-Maffei Wegmann vorgestellt werden müssen ist selbst mir ,als sehr verständnisvollem Menschen, ein mehr als grosses Rätsel.Ansonsten kann man selbstverständlich bei der Bundeswehr das Fliegen in einem Eurocopter ausprobieren und wie selbstverständlich auch den Beschuss von Piraten aus einem fliegenden Hubschrauber üben.Alles natürlich im Rahmen humanitärer Missionen versteht sich.Da erschreckt einen die massive zunahme unbenannter Waffensysteme und Drohnen schon garnicht mehr.In anbetracht der dort vorgestellten Feuerkraft sind aktuelle UAVs eher Kinderkram.

BAE Systems Herti XPA-1B' is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed by the British company BAE Systems. HERTI stands for "High Endurance Rapid Technology Insertion" and was developed in Warton, United Kingdom. The HERTI airframe is based on a motor glider designed by Jaroslaw Janowski of J&AS Aero Design, Poland. Its first flight was in December 2004 at the Australian Woomera test range where much of the test flight programme has been undertaken. HERTI was also the first UAV to fly in the UK with the flight being certified by the United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority. The first vehicles had a maximum take-off weight of 450 kilograms (990 lb) and a payload of about 150 kilograms (330 lb). However the first production example will, according to Flight International, weigh about 750 kilograms (1,700 lb). The first production example will be delivered by Slingsby Aviation to BAE Systems at the end of November 2007. Wingspan: 12.5m, Length: 5.5m, Height: 1.4m, Crusing speed: 170kph, Operating Altitude: 6000m, Endurance: up to 20 hours, Powerplant: Rotax 914F engine 115hp - Australian International Airshow 10-15 March 2009.

Remotely-piloted vehicles (RPVs, known today more as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, UAVs) had been in service since Vietnam, where the USAF used modified BQM-14 Firebee target drones to photograph well-defended targets over North Vietnam. The CIA began experiments with drones as well, but those in use in the 1970s and early 1980s were too noisy, too large, and too expensive. The Israeli Air Force, however, developed smaller, quieter drones and used them successfully during the 1982 Lebanon War to identify Syrian SAM sites without risking pilots.

 

Though the US Army and Navy adopted Israeli Heron drones and would use them during the First Gulf War in 1991, the CIA was more interested in the work of former Israeli designer Abraham Karem, who had developed a slightly larger, more durable UAV called the Gnat. After experimenting with Gnats, the CIA awarded a contract to General Atomics to develop a quiet, high-endurance UAV, which eventually became the Predator. When CIA Predators came under the aegis of the USAF, they were designated RQ-1 Predators and were first used in combat over Bosnia and then Kosovo in 1999. These proved to be hugely successful, and by the time of the 9/11 attacks, the USAF had 60 RQ-1s.

 

Since the Predator had proven itself over Kosovo (only two drones were lost, the same number as manned aircraft), some thought was given to arming the UAVs, namely with the AGM-114 Hellfire. The Predator, being very quiet, could sneak up on a target, or silently trail a moving one, then launch Hellfires—which are supersonic, giving the target no time to react. Testing was incomplete by September 11, 2001, so the Predators were not used before that date in their intended purpose: hunting down and killing Osama bin Laden. Once NATO began attacking the Taliban regime and their al-Qaeda allies in October 2001, however, armed Predators were soon in action, most notably during Operation Anaconda in March 2002. In subsequent action over both Afghanistan and Iraq, the Predator became a feared opponent for insurgent and terrorist forces, since it attacked without warning, and if shot down or lost due to weather, provided no pilot to use for propaganda or revenge purposes. The Predator force was rapidly expanded and supplemented with the larger MQ-9 Reaper; the Predator itself was redesignated MQ-1 since it is no longer used solely for reconnaissance. 195 are known to be in USAF service, with foreign sales to the UK, Turkey, and Italy.

 

The Predator is operated via a “control van” that can be loaded into a C-130 Hercules transport for rapid deployment. While it requires a hard-surface runway, a small launch unit can deploy and take off the drones, with a larger command element hundreds of miles away can then take over and fly the rest of the mission via satellite link. Three personnel are required to fly a Predator, a pilot and two sensor operators. Sensors include a color nose camera, daytime camera, and infrared camera, integrated into an AN/AAS-52 fire control system. The sensor ball in the nose can only use one camera at a time, but can track, lock on, and fire Hellfires; Predators can carry three missiles, but usually only carry two.

 

95-3018 was one of the first Predators to enter service and see combat, flying during the Kosovo War and then latter during the Second Gulf War. As a RQ-1K, this aircraft was unarmed and used only for reconnaissance. It was retired in 2013 and donated to the San Diego Air and Space Museum. It is displayed in its operational colors, with the checkerboards of the 432nd Wing at Creech AFB, Nevada.

Jordi Muñoz: The drones are coming (from Tijuana)!

 

A native of Ensenada, Mexico, Jordi Muñoz co-founded and built a highly successful company with Chris Anderson of Wired magazine: 3-D Robotics. Muñoz started by rebuilding a toy remote-controlled helicopter using accelerometers from a Wii controller, making it a much more stable machine. He soon built his first drone, costing a few hundred dollars, while the nearest competition was asking about twenty thousand. Today, Muñoz is considered one of the top gurus in the field of drones or UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Ve hicles). His ideas are about to

revolutionize and disrupt this space and create inexpensive UAVs for various civil needs.

I returned home to visit family for the first time in a very, very long time and took along my DJI Phantom Vision 2+ to capture some of the places I remembered from my childhood, from a different perspective.

 

This is right on sunset, and the sun was between the horizon and the layer of clouds above and despite the freezing Orange winter, it was a really nice view. I am really enjoying using this little UAV to give a different perspective on the world. I really need a set of gloves as my fingers rapidly lose all feeling in winter here in New South Wales.

 

I deliberately went for the grungy type of processing with this image as I think it suited it well. The sensor in the DJI does tend to produce noisy images but the DNG files seem to respond well to a little bit of noise reduction.
