Projeto conceitual de uma organização militar especializada em operações aéreas não tripuladas

Abstract

The increasing use of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) in modern conflict scenarios imposes new logistical and doctrinal challenges on Armed Forces. In the context of the Brazilian Navy, the decentralized management of these assets may compromise operational efficiency, standardization, and interoperability. This work aims to develop the conceptual design of a Military Organization specialized in unmanned aerial operations. To this end, a methodology encompassing both traditional Systems Engineering and Model- Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) was applied. Both approaches resulted in the generation of functional and physical architectures, allowing for the comparison of results and demonstrating the development efficiency through the use of the ARCADIA method and the Capella tool. As a consolidated result, an integrated organizational structure was defined, capable of centralizing Command and Control (C4I), logistics, intelligence, and operator training functions. The study also presents the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for project management, validating the applicability of the developed architectures and offering the Naval Force a viable roadmap for the implementation of an essential strategic capability.
