For an advantage over the Russian Federation: in Britain found a replacement for "problematic" drones

To spread: In the United Kingdom, satellites, balloons, and tied balloons are viewed as an alternative to reconnaissance medium -percent devices of long flight duration (Male), such as the Watchkeper drone. This is stated in the article of the Royal Joint Institute of Defense Research (Rusi). According to the authors, the replacement of the Watchkeker is a necessity for the British army, as the war in Ukraine showed the low survival of such drones.

It is expected that this problem can be solved by reducing the cost of UAVs so that it is not harmful to lose. However, experts say that this will require the British army to "chase at the expense of the platform. " The publication says that Britain's opportunities for finding goals should exceed the Russian Federation. To do this, Male alternatives are already being created in the country.

It is reported that Britain could invest in low-land satellites, and in the near future-to look for available options, such as high-rise balloons in the stratosphere or tied balloons, equipped with sensors for observation. There is also a prospect of large -scale remote sensing using technologies such as quantum sensors, where there is considerable sovereign potential in the UK.
