Peacetime attrition analysis of selected unmanned aerial vehicles [electronic resource] / by Esther Yu. [Ottawa] : Defence Research and Development Canada, c2008. viii, 14 p. : figures, tables, graphs. Technical Note ; 2008-052 "December 2008." Includes bibliographical references. This research was conducted in support of two upcoming studies: a study regarding manned versus unmanned aircraft for various defence missions and tasks, and a review of peacetime attrition for various classes of aircraft, including both manned and unmanned. The attrition rates for selected unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), such as Predator, Pioneer, and Hunter were researched and compared to the Canadian Forces’ experience with the Sperwer system. Attrition will be dependent on the experience level of the organization employing the aircraft, and the maturity of the aircraft system itself. This relationship is investigated using linear regression analysis. gccst Technical reports Attrition rates Unmanned aerial vehicles Defence R&D Canada.
